Nigeria, Dec. 1 -- Terrorists on Sunday attacked a Cherubim and Seraphim Church in Ejiba, Yagba West Local Government Area of Kogi State, abducting the pastor, his wife and several worshippers.

The attackers stormed the church during the morning service, sending congregants fleeing as gunshots rang through the community.

Residents described the incident as frightening, saying the armed men appeared without warning and seized members of the congregation.

The exact number of abducted persons remains unclear.

A witness said the pastor, known locally as Orlando, was taken alongside his wife and other worshippers who could not escape during the raid.

The Kogi State Government said it had launched a manhunt for the attackers.
