Why would any Christian especially from South East travel to the North for national conference of the National Fellowship of Christian Medical Laboratory Science? Where in the world will you attend such christian meeting or conference in a Northern part of this country Nigeria? it must be El Rufai and his boko haram members that killed this innocent young girls. Because he has been against the Christians for years and he will surely pay the price.
