Godwin Isenyo, KadunaSome gunmen went on the rampage on Christmas Eve (Sunday) at Ungwan Mailafiya, Kwagiri district of Gwong Chiefdom, in the Jema’ah Local Government Area of Kaduna State, killing six and injuring others. This followed an attack on a Christmas carol congregants at Nindem, Godogodo Chiefdom, in the same LGA last Friday. He said while the community was still mourning the Christmas carol night killing of four at Nindem, another attack occurred at Ungwan Mailafiya, where six persons were killed. By daybreak on Christmas Day, six persons were confirmed dead, including a child of about six years old, while many others were injured. That these attacks take place on the eve of Christmas is a demonstration of the total contempt of the perpetrators for the solemnity of this season.
