The duo of a Catholic Priest, Rev. Fr. Chinedu Nwadike and a Seminarian doing his Pastoral Studies with the Priest, kidnapped by bandits along the now notorious Leru Junction, Isuochi, Umunneochi Local Government Area of Abia State axis of the Enugu-Port Harcourt expressway, have been released.

The priest is the Deputy Registrar of Spiritan University, Nneochi (SUN), and was reportedly abducted along with the seminarian while heading to Enugu for an official assignment.

A source stated that the gentlemen have been released, but was unable to state if the N50 million ransom demanded for their release was paid.

Another source said the two religious were let go by the kidnappers after discovering that they were of the clergy, but took every valuable item found in their possession, including their shoes, but left them their documents and one travelling bags.

The kidnappers also took photographs of the two, showing they were not hurt when they released them and asked them to go their way.

Recall that several people have been kidnapped almost daily in the area with the security agencies doing practicslly nothing about it. 

It was gathered that the priest had previously escaped an attempt to abduct him on the same road some days before he got into the kidnappers’ trap.
