An unconfirmed number of worshippers have been reportedly abducted when bandits attacked a branch of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) at Oke Isegun in Eruku, a community in Kwara state, which shares a boundary with Kogi state.
According to The Cable, three people were killed in the attack on Tuesday evening, November 18, in Ekiti local government area (LGA) of the north-central state.
A viral video of the attack, captured during a live stream shows the worshippers conducting a service when sporadic gunshots were heard from around the church premises.
The congregation, led by a young pastor, scampered for safety as the gunshots intensified, after which some bandits were seen entering the church.
More than five armed bandits stormed the building and ransacked the place of worship, carting away the belongings of the worshippers.
