Man reacts to Kwara church attack
The incident sparked worry across different platforms as Nigerians continued to lament the tragic details that had emerged.
In a post shared on X, a user identified as @engr_series spoke about the unfortunate attack and the attention it had drawn.
He claimed that the situation had attracted attention mainly because it had been captured during a live broadcast, which made it impossible for anyone to dismiss or challenge what happened.
According to him, if there had been no live recording, some people might have doubted the occurrence or attempted to downplay its severity.
He also expressed concern that violent attacks of a similar nature had happened in various parts of the country far more frequently than the public realised, yet many of them had not been acknowledged or discussed.

In his words:
"The only reason the attack on the Kwara church is getting this much attention is because it was live-streamed. Otherwise, they’d call it a lie and an agenda. These killings happen far more often than reported."
Commenting on the story, a graduate of mass communication, Kosiso Chukwu, emphasised the power of social media.
"Social media is indeed very powerful. It can make you reach places that you would have never thought you would reach. And I'm grateful that this incident got to limelight. I think it facilitated their release," he said.
