Gunmen have attacked a church in Nigeria, killing at least two people and kidnapping the pastor and some worshippers.

Police and witnesses explained the attack on Wednesday, days after 25 girls were abducted from a boarding school.

The attack on Tuesday evening in the town of Eruku in central Nigeria puts more pressure on the government, which is under scrutiny from United States President Donald Trump.

Trump has threatened military action over persecution of Christians in the country.
