President Buhari who is the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the federation had declared that the killers were trained by former Libyan leader, Mummar Gadaffi.

This is even as nineteen worshippers were killed in a Catholic church in Benue state.

The killings have continued to spread across states as Zamfara, Nassarawa amongst others.
