 Gunmen Reportedly Attack Ugom Community Village After Church Service In Southern Kaduna


Suspected terrorists on Sunday, December 28, 2025, attacked Iwhoshro (Unguwar Rogo), a village in Ugom Community, Maro Ward of Kajuru Local Government Area, Southern Kaduna State, leaving residents in fear and uncertainty.


According to a press statement issued by the Ugom Progressive Union, the attack occurred a few hours after church services, when residents had returned home and were settling into their homes. The assailants reportedly arrived in large numbers on about ten motorcycles, each carrying three armed men.


Eyewitness accounts indicate that all the attackers were armed with guns and immediately began shooting sporadically upon entering the village, causing panic among residents. Women, children, and the elderly were forced to flee in different directions to escape the gunfire.


As of the time the statement was released, no fatalities had been confirmed. However, two women remain missing, including a nursing mother who reportedly abandoned her infant while fleeing in fear. 


The community has expressed deep concern over their whereabouts and safety.


The attackers were also said to have made away with five motorcycles belonging to residents, while another motorcycle was set ablaze. 


The statement stated that the incident has further worsened the economic hardship faced by already vulnerable villagers.


The Ugom Progressive Union recalled that the same community was attacked earlier on January 1, 2025, during which an ECWA church, several houses, and the pastorium were burnt. The incident reportedly left many residents displaced, and nearly a year later, the church is yet to be rebuilt.


Chairman of the Ugom Progressive Union, Onnusim Alhaji Ishaya, said the community has endured repeated attacks for more than a decade and continues to live in fear and uncertainty. 


He called on the government to urgently deploy adequate security personnel to the area and to take concrete steps to protect lives and property.


The union urged authorities to reassess claims that peace has returned to the area, stressing the need for immediate intervention to restore confidence among residents of Ugom Community.
