Gunmen Murders Popular Kaduna Pastor In Broad Day Light Unchallenged

A Pastor of the Tawaliu Baptist Church, Kujama, in Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State Jeremiah Mayau, was Murdered By Gunmen, on Wednesday

The Chairman of the state’s Christian Association of Nigeria, Rev. Joseph Hayab, confirmed the incident to journalists today in Kaduna, the state capital.

Hayab said the incident occurred when the cleric was on his farm.

He described the incident as “barbaric” while urging security operatives to exercise greater vigilance in performing their duties to halt the nefarious activities of criminal elements in the state.

Hayab said, “The barbaric incident happened Wednesday afternoon while the Rev. Jeremiah Mayau was on his farm at Prison Farms Kujama Chikun LGA of Kaduna State.

“It is very painful that gunmen move freely in broad daylight to execute their evil act and get away with it in a civilized society where we have constituted authority that is expected to checkmate these criminal elements.

“It is also painful that when you raise an eyebrow, you are seen as a deviant that is just looking for trouble while those in authority have otherwise refused to do the right thing to ensure harmonious coexistence among the citizens.”
