Suspected herdsmen have ripped open the abdomen of a one-year-old daughter of a Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) student-pastor, leading to her death, in Adamawa state.


Edujandon.com learnt that the infant was snatched from her mother, Siyona Special and killed while they were on the way to a funeral in Kodomti village in the Numan Local Government Area of the state.

A community leader from Kodomti, Elias Kadakufo who confirmed the incident to Edujandon.com, said the murdered infant was the daughter of an RCCG student-pastor.

In an emotion-laden conversation, Kadafuko said, “The woman was discovered in a nearby bush by passers-by lying unconscious in a pool of blood beside the lifeless body of her baby.

The state police command has confirmed the incident, vowing to apprehend the perpetrators.
