Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama of Jos, in central Nigeria, is currently in Rome. He told Vatican Radio he was shocked and saddened to hear about this attack.

Archbishop Kaigama describes the attack as “terribly inhuman” and “barbaric”, targeted at people who’d assembled at 6am to worship God.

He says the bishops of Nigeria condemn the killings and offer their thoughts and condolences “to the good people of Nnewi diocese”, led by their bishop Hilary Okeke.

Despite these attacks, he says Catholics in Nigeria continue to be strong “committed Christians”, who are ready to show their commitment to Jesus through a life of witness.
