Suspected armed robbers have invaded the Saint Barnabas Cathedral, Anglican Communion, in Ilorin, Kwara State, and robbed the priest of items worth millions of naira.
It was gathered that the incident happened at about 2:30am on Monday, and was carried out by a two-man gang on a motorcycle.
The robbers were said to have pulled down the main gate of the two-storey house, moved up and broke down two doors.
Narrating his ordeal, Rev Isaiah Ibikunle Afolayan, said that the hoodlums, armed with sharp objects, broke into his apartment, located on the top floor of the two-storey building and threatened to kill his family members if they refused to cooperate with them.
He also said that his laptop, MacBook Pro, worth N1.3 million, a TV set and his phone were stolen. (The Nation)
