There was pandemonium again on Monday as gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen attacked a minor seminary in Jalingo, Taraba State capital.
Two Catholic priests were reportedly shot and students of the seminary beaten to a stupor. Some cars were also destroyed.
While the persons injured were said to be receiving treatment at the Federal Medical Centre, it was not yet clear if people were killed.
The Director of Caritas Nigeria, an agency of the Catholic Church, Rev. Fr. Evaristus Bassey, revealed this in a WhatsApp message to our correspondent.
He said, “Please Frs, pray for us. Our minor seminary in Jalingo has just been attacked by the Fulani, some students are injured, some cars destroyed, two priests beaten and one shot on the leg. They are currently receiving treatment at FMC.”
