The Catholic Bishop of Wukari Diocese, Most Rev. Dr. Mark Maigida Nzukwein, has urged his deans, other priests, and consecrated persons in violent-pronged areas across Southern Taraba, “to sensitise their people and take all necessary precautionary measures to stay safe.”
Priests of Wukari Diocese have lamented the destruction of Church property in two parishes worth over N100 million in Adu and Atav communities in Takum Local Government Area (LGA) of Taraba State, North-Eastern Nigeria, by suspected Fulani militia.
No fewer than 10 priests, 7 parishes and 20 Outstation Churches have been adversely affected by protracted attacks in Wukari Diocese, north-east Nigeria, where St. Mary’s Cathedral was recently gutted by a fire caused by an electrical fault.
