Parishioners of St. Jude’s Catholic Church in Eburummiri, Ibagwa-Aka, Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area of Enugu State, were left in a state of shock, after their Parish Priest, Rev. Fr. Victor Ishiwu, was allegedly kidnapped while officiating adoration prayers, in the early hours of Saturday,
Report has it that, the kidnappers arrived the adoration ground after midnight and shot into the air as worshippers took to their heels.
Report also has it that, the kidnappers threatened to burn down the church if the Parish Priest who had gone into hiding did not surface.
Eventually the Parish Priest was forced out of his hiding place and whisked away!
Meanwhile as at the time of going to press, the spokesperson for the Enugu State Police Command, Daniel Ndukwe, is said, he was yet to receive a detailed report on the incident.
