Kwara Church Attack: Medical Doctor Identifies Slow-running  Old woman As His Grandma

By Adesina Soyooye

A Jos, Plateau State Medical Doctor has identified the old woman struggling to run, and so escape from the terrorists who attacked a Church in Kwara State as his Grandmother.

Dr Popoola, sharing an account of how the horrifying attack personally affected him said while his grandmother who was struggling to run was not touched, his two aunts and  a cousin were kidnapped.

Recall that blood-thirsty terrorists attacked a branch of Christ Apostolic Church, CAC, Oke Isegun, Eruku Community, Ekiti Local Government Area of Kwara State while worshippers worshipped. They invaded the Church, shot at screaming worshippers – men, women, youths, children – killed some, kidnapped some.

Narrating his story as seen in the live-streaming video, the Doctor who expressed his shock at the brutality displayed by the terrorists wrote:

“My two aunties were kidnapped in this video. The old woman running slowly is my grandma. My grandma seen struggling to run in the video wasn’t taken along with those who were kidnapped,

“Also it’s my biological aunt and my cousin (my other aunt’s son) who were kidnapped.

“Some people were killed, however, details of who isn’t clear yet. The town is in terror.

“Please, whilst we repost and tag let’s also pray. I know it seems as though we’ve been wasting our time praying, but please let’s not lose hope, regardless God is still on His throne.

“If we all join our voices and cry out to Him, He’ll show up as the Lord of hosts.

“I will lift up my eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help? My help comes from the Lord.

He is the helper of the helpless, we’re currently helpless, we’ve tried all we can in Nigeria, we’ve striked, protested, all we can do now is keep doing what we’ve been doing and also pray.

“I am a Doctor in Plateau State, Jos, I know the number of people that have been treated in our facility as a result of assault by these terrorists.

:People living in fear all the days of their lives.

People’s skull hacked like palm trees, people’s hands dangling with only but skin left to hold the limb.

This must end!!!”
