| Rev. Moses Tabuwaye |
Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, the
Archbishop, Metropolitan and Primate of Nigeria, has said that the kidnappers
of Rev. Moses Tabuwaye has demanded for a sum of N40 million ransom for his release
and also advised Christians to be vigilant as kidnappers now roam freely in the
society looking for whom to devour.
Okoh gave the advice in Abuja on Saturday at the
2015 Annual Pre-pilgrimage Retreat and Workshop for staff of Nigerian Christian
Pilgrim Commission (NCPC) and stakeholders.
He said that Bishop Tabuwaye of Gwagwalada
Diocese was on his way to Awka, Anambra State, for a church programme on Sept
4, when the kidnappers took him away to an unknown destination.
"I
urge all of you Christians to be very vigilant and security conscious
where-ever you find yourselves.
"The
issue of kidnapping is rampant in the country but we can still curtail the
menace if we are vigilant.’’
"If
we fail to live together as brothers in prayers, we shall perish as fools, so
we should endeavour to be our brothers’ keepers," he said.
Also speaking at the retreat, NCPC boss, John-Kennedy
Opara, assured that he would always give a sense of direction and hope
to ensure that God’s plans for the commission were achieved.
