A seminarian died last night when extremists torched a presbytery in Nigeria’s Kafanchan Diocese.
The incident took place about 8pm on September 7 when Fulani bandits attacked and set fire to the rectory of St Raphael’s parish in Fadan Kamantan, Kaduna State.
According to Bishop Julius Kundi of Kafanchan, parish priest Father Emmanuel Okolo and the assistant priest were able to escape the fire, but seminarian Na’aman Danlami, 25, died in the attack.
Speaking to Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), Bishop Kundi said: “The attackers were aiming to kidnap the parish priest.
