An Anglican priest, Venerable Emmanuel Ejianya, has been abducted by unknown gunmen in Anambra State.
A police source told Daily Champion that the clergyman was kidnapped last Sunday when his abductors trailed him from Eziowelle in Idemili North Council area to his official residence at Anglican Church, Ogidi in Idemili North Area Council of the state.
The incident is coming barely two weeks after his brother, Mr. Mike Ejianya, slumped and died while preaching on the pulpit. Mike is yet to be buried. It was gathered that Venerable Ejianya was returning from a one-day crusade organized by members of the Anglican community at Eziowelle late in the night when the unidentified hoodlums trailed him to his official residence and abducted him.
Lord, have mercy upon your servant and his family.
prayers ascending on our part!
Lord, protect Your servant and bring him home safe to his loved ones.
Prayer.
A grim reminder of what our brothers and sisters face. My prayers are with Ejianya+ and his family.
I’ll be sure to say a prayer for Father Emmanuel before bed.
