Mr Emmanuel Agbesi, the kidnapped Pastor of the South-East Regional
Headquarters of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries at Aba in Abia, has
been rescued by the police.
Agbesi was kidnapped by gunmen on 18 February.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that two suspects, Ogbonnaya Ugwumba
and Kelechi Ugwumba have been arrested by the Aba Area Police Command in
connection with the incident.
The police said that the suspects were being interrogated in the course of
investigations to arrest the three fleeing abductors. A senior police officer said on condition of anonymity that Agbesi was rescued the same day with his
car, a Gulf Saloon with registration number KSF 281 AH, near the Coca-Cola Depot
along the Owerri-Onitsha highway in Imo.
The officer said that the suspects now in custody were the children of the
landlord where the church was situated, who had previously threatened to
physically assault the pastor.
When contacted, the Commissioner of Police in Abia, Alhaji Mohammed Abubakar,
told NAN that he would get the details before making public statement on the
matter.
“I will get back to you. I am yet to get any report on the matter from the
Aba Area Police Command but I will call them to find out,” he said.
