Police Mum On Herdsmen Role After Rescue Of RCCG Female Cleric

The Police in Ogun State have vowed to rescue the four remaining clerics of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG after rescuing the only woman of five ministers of the church abducted on Friday.

With controversy over the role of herdsmen in the abduction, the police are yet to speak on how the woman, Mrs. Ibelegbo Chindinma was rescued.

Bandits posing as herdsmen have been blamed for most of the insecurity and kidnapping in the Southwest of the country.

It was, however, gathered that all five abductees were taken to various locations and were being moved from place to place.

Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Abimbola Oyeyemi in a statement on Saturday morning said:

“The Ogun State police command wishes to inform the general public that one of the kidnap victims Mrs Ibelegbo Chidinma the only woman amongst them has been rescued unhurt.

“The woman who is a Deaconess of the Redeem Christian church of God regained her freedom in the early hour of today 3rd of August 2019 and she is currently at the command’s headquarters in Abeokuta where arrangement is being made to take her to the Redemption Camp.

“Efforts are on top gear to rescue the remaining victims as the kidnappers who kept them in separate locations were changing their locations from time to time within the forest.

“The command hereby wishes to assure members of the public that the remaining victims will soon be rescued”

The police silence follows controversial attacks on Vice President Yemi Osinabjo, a pastor in the RCCG who claimed in America last month that insecurity in the country was exaggerated.
