THERE was great sadness on Tuesday last week at the funeral mass of Fr Donal Twomey held in St Patrick’s Chapel, Kiltegan, followed by his burial afterwards in the St Patrick’s Missionary Society cemetery.
Suspected terrorists have reportedly kidnapped no fewer than 56 people during a fresh attack on Adara town in the Paikoro Local Government Area of Niger state, north central Nigeria. The attack occurred in the middle of March, while residents of the community and its environs were mourning the death of Rev Fr Isaac Achi, who was brutally murdered by suspected assassins in the state in January.
