Omugo: After Bandits Attacked, We Called Police Around 10:10am But They Got Here at 10:40am – Omole

Fear and anger are spreading across Kwara State after a terrifying church attack that has left families in pain and many Nigerians asking hard questions. Ohh Wait… Watch Video Now.

The resident pastor of ECWA Church in Omugo, Sunday Omole, has broken his silence, revealing how bandits stormed the church during Sunday service and abducted eight worshippers — including his own wife.

According to him, the attack happened around 10:10am, sending members running for their lives as gunmen invaded the peaceful gathering. Moments after the attackers fled into nearby bushes, community members quickly regrouped and contacted the police for help.

But what happened next has shocked many Nigerians — a delay that could have changed everything (this shocking update reveals what many are now questioning).

Pastor Omole said the police were called immediately at 10:10am, yet they didn’t arrive until about 10:40am. That delay, he stressed, is deeply troubling, especially considering that the police station is just 6 to 8 kilometres away from the church.

His voice carried both pain and frustration as he recounted the moment: the attack, the fear, and the helpless wait for security that seemed too long in such a critical situation.

Now, many are asking — could a faster response have prevented the kidnappings?

The incident has once again raised serious concerns about security response times in Nigeria, especially in rural communities where help is often needed urgently. Families of the victims are now left in distress, hoping and praying for their safe return.
