Commotion as suspected terrorist drives into Catholic Church in Police Barracks, Abuja [Video]
A Catholic Church in Abuja has been thrown into a state of confusion and panic after a suspected terrorist invaded its premises.
In a video making rounds on social media, a man donning a turban headgear drove into Archangel Raphael Catholic Church, Garki, Abuja on Sunday, July 3rd.
The yet-to-be-identified man drove in a silver-colored Peugeot 406 with an Abuja plate number; BWR-417HF and also wore a hat with the inscription ‘POLICE’ as well as faded camouflage trousers.
A lady narrating the ordeal stated that the man stormed into the church and gave conflicting accounts about his mission and identity when he was apprehended by the church worshippers.
The eyewitness said; “This is just happening here right now, a terrorist entered my church Archangel Raphael Catholic Church, Garki, Abuja, Police Barracks. He dressed up in a turban, a police face cap and dark shades. He drove to where the men were having a meeting. We were shouting for him to stop. So we raised an alarm that people should come out and stop him and they stopped him.
Upon interrogation, he said he was here to see somebody but the person he claimed he came to see said he did not know him. The suspect added that he hailed from Abia and when we asked him what part of Abia, he could not say. He proceeded to reveal his relatives were from Ethiopia. So we asked him, what are you doing dressed like this? he couldn’t provide a reasonable answer.
He said he was going to call the Inspector General of Police. We saw some things in his car, drugs and some other items.“
