CAN: Living Faith 'suicide bomber' identified himself as Mohammed Sani
The CAN chairman expressed surprise over the sudden change of the suspected suicide bomber's name from Mohammed Sani to Nathaniel Samuel after he was handed over to the Police.
The Kaduna State chapter of the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has made a startling revelation about the middle-age man suspected to be a suicide bomber at the Living Faith Church, Sabin Tasha, Kaduna state. The "suicide bomber" was arrested with a duffle bag containing items suspected to be explosive devices. Chairman of the Christian body in the state, Rev. John Hayab, said he had identified himself as Mohammed Sani when he was apprehended by the church on Sunday, February 2, 2020. The cleric expressed surprise over the sudden change of the suspected suicide bomber's name from "Mohammed Sani" to "Nathaniel Samuel" after he was handed over to the Police. He called for the thorough investigation of the matter beyond the religion or alleged name change. The church was in session when the young man came in, dropped his bag and exited as if he was going to the toilet, but didn’t come back in time. Some church members became suspicious. The church had put security measures in place such that they monitor everything going on in the church and they even have CCTV cameras," the cleric said according to Punch. They discovered that what was in the bag looked like explosives, so they called the police. Let me state clearly that it was not the police that arrested him. It was the church that arrested him and then handed him over to the police. The police came to pick him up at the church. At the time he was interrogated at the church, he told the church that his name was Mohammed Sani, but when he was handed over to the police, the police told everyone that his name was Samuel Nathaniel," he added.
