BREAKING: St Josephine Bakhita Catholic Church in Sokoto set on fire (Video)


Hoodlums have set on fire the St Josephine Bakhita Catholic Church in Sokoto State.

This followed the protest that broke out over the arrest of the suspected killers of Deborah Samuel.

Deborah was killed for allegedly insulting the Holy Prophet Mohammed in a school WhatsApp group chat.

This led to the arrest of two persons following the order of the Sultan of Sokoto.
IDOMA VOICE obtained a video of the missionary vehicle in flames while some members in the church were scampering for safety.
