BREAKING: BCS Archbishop, wife and son kidnapped by gunmen in Abia

The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star Archbishop, Uka Uka Osim, together with his son Roland Uka Osim and wife Anne Osim, have been abducted.

On May 1, 2024, they were taken into custody in Abia State together with three other clerics from the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.

They were travelling to Awka, capital of Anambra State, on evangelical duties when the armed men accosted them.

Other three priests also kidnapped were Azuka Ochu, Moses Okafor and Anderson Akwazie.

Their abduction was confirmed by the administrator of the spiritual organisation in Abia State, BCS, Bishop Denis Onuoha.

He said four days after, the abductors have not reached out to anybody.

“We are very worried but we are assured that the Almighty Father who they worship and work for with total devotion will help them out”, he said.

While he called on security agencies to step in and rescue the clergymen, he said they are deep in prayers believing that the Archbishop and his brethren will be rescued unhurt.

Police authorities in both Anambra and Abia States are yet to react to the incident. (Text, excluding headline: Daily Trust)
