They showed him around the church, including doors with bullet holes. They also showed him blood stains on the floor of the church.

Gwamnishu said:

"I visited the church where 38 worshipers were abducted. I met with the resident pastor, one of the victims who narrowly escaped. The sight was heartbreaking, blood spilled in the house of God, children and their mothers taken away, three victims already k!lled, and millions now being demanded for the release of the remaining abductees. The entire Eruku community, alongside the church, is urgently calling on the Government to intervene and rescue these innocent people. I urge the Government to move in more security in Eruku and other neighboring towns as these criminals may likely attack another community."
