A boy has been killed and several worshippers injured after bandits attacked a mosque during Maghrib prayers in Namama community, Giwa Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The incident was reported in a post on X on Monday by security analyst Bakatsine.
According to the post, the attackers stormed the mosque while worshippers were observing evening prayers amid heavy rainfall and opened fire indiscriminately on those inside.
The assault reportedly resulted in the death of a young boy identified as Adamu, while several other worshippers sustained injuries and were taken for medical treatment.
Bakatsine wrote: “Yesterday evening, bandits attacked worshippers during Maghrib prayers at a mosque in Namama community, Giwa LGA of Kaduna State, amid heavy rainfall. The attackers opened fire indiscriminately, killing a young boy identified as Adamu and injuring several other worshippers.”
He added that prayers are ongoing for the recovery of those who were injured.
He also questioned the rising insecurity, asking how many more civilians would have to die in places of worship before effective measures are taken to protect vulnerable communities.
