CatholicOnline: On the 4th Sunday of Easter, April 29, 2012, the faithful gathered for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass being offered at Kano’s Bayero University. Evil Islamic jihadists used small explosives to draw the faithful out and then shot those who fled.

Vatican Radio reported “twenty one people are being mourned in Nigeria . after they were killed by gunmen who attacked Christian religious services on Sunday in the north of the country. The coordinated assaults happened at a university campus, during the observance of a religious service, and a church. “This horrific attack really defies all logic”, said the Archbishop of Jos and President of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria, Ignatius Kaigama, reacting to Sunday’s killings.
