The identities of the victims abducted during a raid on three churches in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State have been unveiled.
Daily Trust had reported how gunmen broke into Kurmin Wali village on Sunday, moving from one church to another.
At the end of the operation, at least 177 worshippers were abducted.
The government and the police had earlier denied the attack, accusing the media of misleading the public.
However, on Tuesday, Force spokesman, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the police had confirmed that the incident actually happened.
He said the Inspector-General of Police had deployed tactical units to the area for rescue of the victims.
After Hundeyin’s confirmation, Sebastine Barde, President of the Adara Development Association (ADA), an umbrella body for Adara Ethnic Nationality in Kajuru LGA, released a list of the victims.
This has created stir, especially on social media, as a review of the list shows that there are some families with more than 10 persons in captivity.
