He told the members of the church that they were not alone in the pains inflicted by the \u201cdastardly act\u201d of the bombers.<\/p>\n
He said he was going to visit the blast victims who are presently receiving treatment at the National Hospital, Gwagwalada Specialist Hospital and other hospitals in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).<\/p>\n
Also speaking, the Parish Priest, Reverend Father Isaac Achi, said he was not in church during the fateful morning mass, but when he was alerted, he rushed to the church to find the whole place in chaos.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I got to church, I saw several corpses on the ground at the frontage of the church gate,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The Reverend Father said the church was yet to ascertain the level of the damage on the church and the exact number of casualties from his parish.<\/p>\n
