HERDSMEN STRIKE IN DELTA, ABDUCT ANGLICAN PRIEST, WIFE, CHILDREN AND ONE OTHER

Nine days after a Celestial Church Pastor was killed at Ibusa, near Asaba, an Anglican Priest, Revd. Anthony Oyi was yesterday kidnapped with his wife, his children and one of his friends by suspected herdsmen at Issele-Mkpitime, Aniocha North Local Government Area, Delta State. The Priest who resides at Oko-Ogbele and a native of Issele-Mkpitime had gone to farm with his family from where they were abducted by the ravaging herdsmen. A source who pleaded anonymity, however, told Sunday Vanguard that the wife and children have been released by the hoodlums with a mandate to go get money to pay ransom for the release of the Clergy and the other man.
