Gunmen Reportedly Abducted A Catholic Priest For The Second Time
This is the second time the priest was being kidnapped by gunmen.
It was assembled that the Catholic priest was abducted at his farm on the Isele-Uku/Issele-Mkpetime road on Saturday, September 26, alongside three of his workers.
Fr. Onyebadi was kidnapped on the same farm in 2018 but was later released few days after the abduction. His abduction in 2018 led to protest by Catholic priests in the Isele-Uku Catholic Diocese.
He is the parish priest of Saints Peter & Paul Catholic Church, Issele-Azagba, a neighbouring community to Asaba, the state capital. However, three of the workers were reported to have been released at about 11pm On Saturday. The hoodlums were yet to contact the church and members of his parish.
