Fiery Plateau State clergy, Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo has narrated how Fulani bandits stormed a hospital in a community in the state, kidnapped Christian girls who they took into some rocky area and gang-raped them at gunpoint over eight hours before they were released.
In a video he posted on his Facebook page on Wednesday, Rev. Dachomo, who is the Regional Chairman for the Church of Christ in Nations, COCIN, in Barkin Ladi local government area of the state, stated that the bandits had stormed the hospital with sophisticated weapons including AK-47s, swords and machetes and abducted the giris who were on admission and dragged them into the rocks and took turns to rape them.
He, however, said some of the kidnapped girls who were Muslims were spared the rape ordeal, as only the Christian girls were defiled and made to go through the horrific experience.
In the video, Rev. Dachomo is seen talking with one of the victims who narrated what they went through in the hands of the militants and went on to explain that the bandits stormed the hospital around 8pm on Saturday, October 17th, and kidnapped the girls who were patients and receiving treatment at the facility.
According to the clergy, after taking their victims into the rocks, the Fulani attackers intentionally isolated the Christian girls among them. They gang-raped them at gunpoint for over eight hours.
“They didn’t touch their fellow members of Islam. They isolated our Christian girls and raped them for more than eight hours,” he said in the video.
“The kidnapped girls, including one who was specifically at the hospital to care for her admitted mother, were forced away to the rocky areas in the night.
