Bandits who abducted 60 worshippers at the Emanuel Baptist Church located in Kakau Daji in Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna state, have reportedly demanded for bags of rice and groundnut oil to feed the victims.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that suspected kidnappers had stormed the church on October 31, 2021, and kidnapped the worshippers.
According to Daily Trust, a member of the community whose relatives are among those abducted said the bandits called on Thursday night to demand food items from the community.
The source said; “We were told they called on Thursday night demanding for five bags of rice, four gallons of groundnut oil, Maggi carton and salt that failure to provide these items it means the victims will not eat.”
Noting that the bandits seemed to be more concerned about the foodstuffs which they claimed will be used to feed the victims, he added that they kept saying that their victims will go hungry if food items are not provided,
