The Redeemed Christian Church of God declares Prayers For Abducted Members As Gunmen Demand N50m Ransom

A serious search for the members has been launched by security agencies, including the police and the military.

The RCCG Head of Media and Public Relations, Pastor Olaitan Olubiyi, told the media that the ministry was working with security agencies for the safe return of the victims. He added that the church was disturbed by the incident.

In his words, “We feel completely disturbed by the development, and as a church, the best we can do is to pray that God will intervene and these brethren will return home to their loved ones. As a church, we are praying now and asking God to take charge of the situation. A report has also been made to the police.”

The hoodlums were said to have taken them in their operational vehicle and abandoned the church’s shuttle on the road.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Mohammed Jalige, said the abandoned church bus had been recovered.

He said, “The divisional police officer in charge of the area reported to us in the early hours of today (Saturday) that a vehicle with the inscription, ‘Redeemed Christian Church of God’ was found by the roadside with no occupant. “The vehicle was about to be taken into custody when we received a phone call that some people were on their way from Kaduna to the scene; they brought an extra key for the vehicle. So, instead of towing the vehicle, we just allowed the church to take it away. A serious search for the members has been launched by security agencies, including the police and the military.”

He said the police would ensure that the victims were rescued unhurt.
