Gunmen Abduct 95-Year-Old Priest In Benin by lalasticlala(m): 1:54pm On Nov 28, 2014
A 95-year-old Senior Apostle General of Messiah Gospel Church, Urhokuosa, Benin-city, Moses Aibangbee, was kidnapped on Thursday at 5.30am at the entrance of his church.

Narrating the incident to journalists, Pastor Aigbe Christopher said he woke up around 5am in preparation for the morning service only to by accosted by four persons fully armed with guns.

He said: “As I woke up around 5am this morning (yesterday), I opened my front door and saw four persons by the window of our Papa Aibangbee. They left the window and pointed their guns at me, telling me to ask my wife to switch off the radio that was on at that particular time.

“They then asked me to cooperate with them and they had not come for me but Papa Aibangbee.

“At that point, Henry, Aibangbee’s son, had readied the car to take papa to church. As they drove off to church, they left me and I ran after them because the road is not too motorable.”

Christopher said as he tried to run to the church to warn the elderly man and his son through another road, he overheard the wife of the abducted priest crying that her husband had been kidnapped.

Giving his own account, Henry, who drove his 95-year-old father to church, said as they arrived the church premises, he asked his parents to wait inside the car while he went in to put on the church’s generating set, stating that before he could do that, two persons armed with guns pounced on him demanding the car key.

He said the gunmen took the key and drove his car away, abducting his father along with them.

The 95-year-old man’s wife, Mrs. Aibangbee also told reporters that she managed to sneak out of the car when the gunmen focused attention on her son.

She said she wondered what they would want with the poor old man and appealed to the abductors to release him, as he is unwell.

At the time of filing this report, the community elders and youths were meeting on the incident, while contact had not been established with the abductors.

Boys are not smiling.

We will definately experience more kidnappings and an upsurge in other crimes, Especially this christmas period.

So when making your budget for the christmas make sure to keep something for the boys because, a lot of recharge card and #2500 kidnappers will emerge from their corners where they are presently hibernating.

But darn, kidnapping a 95yr old, boyz are realy getting desperate.

This is so bad. I wonder what these young men who have blood and water flowing through them would do with a 95-yr old man.

Really, the kidnapping economy in the south south is really booming. I guess its part of oga at the top's transformation agenda.

And after milking the family for a ransom, the police will come up with their usual grammar: 'the kidnappers took to their heels after our men mounted pressure on them,leaving the old man behind. No ransom was paid'. It is well o
