It is a "Black Sunday" in Kaduna State as we report a devastating mass abduction that has left the nation in shock this January 19, 2026. Armed bandits launched a coordinated, simultaneous attack on three separate churches—including the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), the Catholic Church, and a Cherubim and Seraphim church—in the Kurmin Wali community of Kajuru Local Government Area.
In this video, we dive into the harrowing details of how gunmen overwhelmed the congregation at approximately 11:25 a.m., snatching over 160 worshippers right in the middle of their Sunday service! We discuss the official figures confirming that 172 were initially taken, with only a few escaping, leaving 163 still in captivity. We also explore the broader security context, including the recent DSS rescue of pastors in Chikun and the ongoing "leave or die" ultimatums issued by bandit warlords like Bello Turji in neighboring Sokoto. This is a story of faith under fire and a community's desperate cry for help.
