Inside Nigeria - Catholic Priest Butchered Beyond Recognition

 

Rev. Father John Gbakaan, has been hacked to death by unknown gunmen in Niger State Nigeria

Rev. Father John Gbakaan, has been hacked to death by unknown gunmen in Niger State Nigeria.


It was reported that Fr. Gbakaan alongside his brother and another priest travelled to Makurdi in Benue state last Thursday, January 14 to see his mother. 

The cleric was on his way back to Niger state with his brother when they were attacked by gunmen along Lambata-Lapai road. The attackers were said to have descended on the priest with machetes, hacking his body beyond recognition.


Meanwhile, his body was found the following day tied to a tree in a bush while his vehicle, a Toyota Venza was also found in the bush.


The catholic priest's brother was abducted and is yet to be found. His abductors have reportedly contacted the Catholic Diocese in Minna and initially demanded N30 million as ransom but later reduced it to N5 million.


The height of insecurity in Nigeria is getting more unbearable each day and something should be done about it.
