A few weeks after the abduction of Methodist Prelate, Dr. Kanu-Uche, and payment of N100 million before his release, Bishop of Jebba Diocese of The Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Rt Rev Oluwaseun Aderogba, and his wife, have been kidnapped.
They were abducted on Sunday evening along Ogbomoso/Oyo road.
The chaplain of the diocese escaped.
The chaplain said: “We were travelling from Jebba to Oyo. A few kilometers to Oyo, our vehicle developed a fault. My Lord Bishop called the Lord Bishop of Oyo, Bishop Aladekugbe, for help. However, before the help surfaced, some armed men surrounded them and ordered them into the bush.
“I was lucky I was not visible because of my black cassock. I fell flat on my belly to hide myself while they marched my bishop and wife deep into the forest”.
It was learned that Bishop Aladekugbe immediately alerted the Primate, Most Revd Henry Ndukuba, and other members of the House of Bishops.
Later, the kidnappers got in touch with one of the bishops by using Bishop Aderogba’s wife’s phone.
They demanded for N50 million ransom.
