Gunmen Kidnap Pastor In Rivers

Suspected kidnappers have abducted a man identified as Ibibosuo McCarthy in Degema Local Government Area of Rivers State.
It was gathered that McCarthy was abducted in his compound by fully armed gunmen, who stormed his residence from the creek.
The family of the man has begged the people behind the abduction of McCarthy for his unconditional release.
The victim’s brother, Ibisoma McCarthy, said the masked kidnappers shot sporadically before they whisked his brother away in a standby boat through Sombriero River.
Ibisoma said his brother, who is hypertensive, was a preacher of the gospel, and not a trouble maker.
He, therefore, called on the Nigeria Police and other security agencies to ensure the unconditional release of his brother.
Efforts to get confirmation of the police authorities in the state proved abortive as at press time.
