Gunmen have abducted Rev. Fr. Christopher Onotu, the parish priest of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Obangede, Okehi Local Government Area of Kogi State.

The Gunmen invaded the Church Rectory at about 9pm on Saturday June 4, entered the priest’s bedroom through the window and whisked him away to an unknown destination.

It was gathered that members of the church received the sad news of the incident on Sunday morning when they arrived for the first mass.

A member of the Church told journalists that the abductors also went away with the priest’s car.

“They dropped his two phones but went with the sim cards. 

“The activities of gunmen in the central senatorial district of the state have had residents panicking for the last few weeks.” the source said.
