Terrorists during church Saturday night vigil killed three persons and abducted 15 worshippers in an attack at Ori-Oke Ajaiye in the outskirts of Ikiran village of Ekiti Local Government Area of Kwara state.

Vanguard reliably gathered that the gruesome attack occurred while the worshippers were observing night vigil at about 20:30hours, thereby causing pandemonium within the surrounding communities.

Sources in the area had earlier disclosed that armed terrorists stormed the community in large numbers, attacking worshippers and residents before they fled through nearby forest routes.
