(Latest Nigeria News) An attack on a Church has been followed by a reprisal attack on the Central Mosque in Okene, Kogi state .

"In the evening some bombers attacked the central mosque," explains a local journalist. "They killed two soldiers but the soldiers were able to kill one of them."

National news agencies reported at least 19 people killed in the attack on the Deeper Life Church when it was attacked by men with assault rifles.

The photos obtained by BattaBox (see video) showed a trip by Kogi state Governor to visit the victims of the church attack in hospital. The Governor can clearly be seen wearing a bullet-proof vest while holding a microphone and addressing the victims. The surviving victims of the attack can be seen with a variety of body and head wounds.

A curfew is now in place in Okene area from dusk till dawn with a ban on Okada activities from 6am - 6pm.

"The atmosphere is tight because of the heavy presence of security," explains the journalist.
