Unknown gunmen have on Sunday invaded ECWA church in the Kabba area of Kogi State, killing one of the worshippers and abducting two others.
The ECWA church attack on Okadayo-Kabba, along Okene road, is coming barely a few days after a jailbreak at a federal correctional centre located in Kabba and the abduction of three poultry farmers from their farm, all in the same area.
The church attack was said to have occurred around 10.15 shortly after the service had started.
The attackers numbering about six reportedly came with guns and other lethal weapons including cutlasses.
They reportedly shot sporadically making everybody scamper for safety.
The abducted worshippers are said to be two of the oldest members of the church.
The spouse of one of the two abducted worshippers and another male worshipper reportedly sustained gunshot injuries.
An eyewitness said the police later visited the church to take the dead to the mortuary at the General Hospital, Kabba while the two injured persons were taken to a Lokoja hospital for treatment.
William Aya, the police spokesperson in Kogi state, confirmed the attack, adding that the police would go after the perpetrators.
