It was a rare sight of courage and resilience on Sunday as hundreds
of members of Saint Rita’s Catholic Church in Kaduna return to the
church for a Sunday mass.
The church was attacked by a suicide bomber last Sunday killing eight
and injuring over 120 worshippers.
In a church service led by the
injured parish priest,Reverend Fr Mike Bazza, the worshippers said no
amount of bombings would make them abandon their church and religion.
A member of the church, Mr. Matthew Bala, who sent pictures of their
service to SaharaReporters, said in a telephone interview, “No amount of
bombings or attacks will make us forsake our faith and christianity
indeed. Yes they attacked us like I told you last week, but in God we
trust.”
“The church came before Boko Haram, and it will outlast the sect, so
it shall be. They have no control over us and their days are numbered
going by their act.” he concluded.
