At the time, the bereaved family was holding a prayer meeting in preparation for the burial of another member who was also shot and killed in the village recently.

Family of those shot and killed on Wednesday night say gunmen demanded money that was intended for the funeral of their mother who was gunned down earlier this month.

No arrests have been made.
