Church chairs, musical instruments and other equipment were said to have been stolen by protesters in Daura, Katsina State on the first day of the ongoing nationwide protest against hardship.

The protesters invaded a Living Faith Church in the Daura Local Government Area of the state, stealing chairs, musical instruments, and other valuable items.

The Pastor in charge of the church, David Jato, said on Sunday that the Church service could not hold due to the action, “because the protesters went away with everything inside the church on the first day of the protest and they decided to worship at their various home cells.

“We have two security guards working in the church, one was on duty while the other was off. When the protest began around 10:00 am, the protesters just diverted to the church, many of them in Keke Napep (tricycle), and broke the door and glasses and penetrated the church auditorium.

“They packed everything inside the church auditorium, including the digital wall clock, musical instruments, pulpit, pastor’s chairs, plastic chairs, and a desktop computer at the reception, as well as a scoreboard where the accountant usually kept the church documents. They scattered everything.

“Three churches were their target while they succeeded in invading the Living Faith Church and Deeper Life Bible Church they couldn’t gain access to the third one which is the Anglican church because of the strong protection at the gate.”

The Pastor in charge of the Deeper Life Bible Church, Isaac E., told our correspondent that the protesters went away with plasma televisions, standing fans, cooking pots while they damaged window louvers, glass pulpits etc. Meanwhile, he said they are still taking stock to ascertain other things that were stolen.

The churches had informed the police and the Army about it and they had made some arrests.
