People gathered at Eagle Arena in Abuja for the APC primaries, but nothing happened. It’s innocent people in churches they are attacking. Please make it make sense.
When will the killings end in this country? I think the best thing for us Igbos is to complete our Biafra process so we can leave the country to these Fulani herdsmen.
The incident that happened on Sunday was a sad one in a church during service for people to walk in and bomb the altar and start shooting sperodically and wasted lives of people…mmm Ha security in Nigeria is a no for me…..The government needs to do more for the masses

So disheartening, insecurity is one of the problem we are facing in the country…. A thought of comfort and condolences to the grieving family. Gone from our sight, but never from our hearts… We pray God in his infinite mercy forgive and accept their souls. Also I pray for God intervention and unity, good leadership,security, all round stability in the country.
The attack on the church was such a horrific event. Blood were shed and the church was desecrated. That was the height of it all. I just hope they are caught.
It’s very barbaric,weaked and bad experience which must not repeat itself…
It’s very discouraging to learn that one of the challenges our nation must contend with is increased levels of insecurity…. A comforting thought and my deepest condolences go out to the family who recently lost a loved one.
The major issue we’re facing in this country is insecurity, I hope the next president we’re going to elect puts major focus on this, May God keep us all
These killers are extremely heartless and vile, imagine butchering children, women and elderly ones. This is very sad😢
The government should put huge efforts in making sure these criminals are caught because we can’t keep living like this
This is terrible news, and my heart goes out to those who were hurt. May their souls rest in perfect peace, and may those who were injured make a speedy recovery. The government should prevent something like this from happening again ooo
What happened on Sunday was a horrible event. The videos and pictures of the aftermath of the event is a very terrible sight to behold. My condolences to the bereaved families
May Almighty Allah heal our land and get rid of all these evil people perpetrating such evil acts. RIP to those that was lost 🙏
I wish all survivors in hospital Quick recovery And my condolences to the families who lost their loved ones
How can a minority tribe like fulani be terrorism the whole country. It is a pointer to the fact that some powerful individual in the government is supporting their activities. God almighty will deliver Nigeria from hands of the Fulanis,
Will this menace ever stop? I mean, criminals have grown so much balls because they know nothing will happen. How many more life has to be lost before we get our shit together in this hell hole. This is really sad.
The government should better improve our security, enough is enough in this country it’s getting worst day by day and the government are doing nothing to counter all this the best we could do now is pray for our survival and this country. May all lost soul rest in perfect peace.
Government has failed in security aspect, whenever killings like this happen all they will say is, We condemn the act… Government won’t act and make sure that something like that won’t happen again.
Churches need to have security with guns. We need to protect ourselves
This horrible scene is what no human such be a victim of.
Currently in the country nowhere is safe and if proper measure is not taken, such a deed cannot be cubbed
I hope days will come when we will no longer be saying the word “Condolence”
May God heal our land
The whole thing is just scary. The situation we are now is only God that can deliver us. It is so horrific seeing blood in the place of worship.
It’s very horrible experience which government need to take holistic approach in eradicate as quick as possible because anytime such barbaric scene occur,the government officials will quickly run to the media and say they condem the act and later run nothing will come out.
