40 Persons Killed In Kaduna As Violence Spread

The crisis situation in Kaduna, as a result of the bombing of three churches on Sunday, went out of control and the State government was left with no better option other than to declare a 24-hour curfew in the state.

The army, police and other security agencies have taken over the streets of Kaduna. A source who spoke to Olufamous.com from the state capital disclosed that human beings were slaughtered like animals as the situation "degenerated into a full blown religious war between Christians and Muslims."

It was gathered that about 40 people were killed by the suicide bombers who attacked the three churches and the violence that followed later as a result of reprisal attacks.

As at the time of posting, many are still battling with life in several hospitals across the state.
