(AllAfrica) Nigeria: Robbers Snatch N.8 Million From Anglican Bishop

A four-man gang of armed robbers Monday burgled the Bishop’s Court, the Anglican Diocese of Asaba in Delta State, taking away N800,000 and other valuables.

The bishop, [the] Rt. Rev… [Justus Mogekwu], and his wife were held at gun point inside their bedroom by the hoodlums at about 1 am who operated for about three hours.

Read it all.

Reminder: Justus Emeka Mogekwu was elected the new bishop of Asaba in 2009 to replace Nicholas Okoh, now Nigerian primate

    That’s more cash than I have in the house, but does not seem high for west Africa.
