Gunmen Kill Abducted Priest In Kogi After Collecting N1 Million Ransom by Addme: 7:16am On Nov 16, 2023
A clergyman with the Evangelical Church Winning All, ECWA, Pastor David Musa, has been killed by his abductors in Kogi State.

He was said to have been killed on Tuesday night after the gunmen collected N1 million ransom from his family.

News of his murder was broken on the social media church platform on Wednesday morning. The short message reads: “It is with a heavy heart but in total submission to the will of God, I write to inform you that the abductors of our brother, Pastor Musa David, have killed him after collecting ransom of one million naira last night. Let our prayers be with the family, the Church, and the DCC in this trying moment.”

News of the abduction of the victim broke on Saturday, 11 November, in the heat of the Kogi State governorship election. He was said to have been abducted around the Obajana area.
Pastor David was formerly in charge of ECWA Bishara, Ajaokuta. His gruesome murder has heightened panic among his congregation and the state in general.


It would be recalled that the Lokoja/Obajana/Kabba Road has become unsafe in recent times. Gunmen have been operating regularly on the road, abducting and sending people to their early graves.


In September, an army Major was among 26 people that were led to the bush at Aiyegunle Igun, a few kilometres to Kabba town. Some of them secured their freedom after one week in captivity. The fate of others are still unknown.

In a related development, some people narrowly escaped abduction when the gunmen seized the road on Sunday.

For many reasons, i don't like kogi state at all. It's not a state i will advise anybody to live. Unemployment very high, youths restiveness second to non and above all they are very diabolical. Expecially the Ethnic group that occupy OKENE TOWN.

Can't you see that Fulani Herdsmen have resumed their actions again. In total disregard to Tilumbu,who you supported as President?

IPOB catches them and kills Dem without pity. Same you will be insulting IGBOs. It's obvious you are Yoruba and instead of thinking without sentiments, you let bigotry cover your brains.

I wish they catch people like you..so you will be in their captivity and be shouting IPOB... Nonsense.

check very well where he was abducted …
there must be a fulani settlement & cattle market nearby …
and there must be an army checkpoint nearby

maybe he recognized the place they took him to so they had to kill hi. To avoid traces..

What is stopping the government from making kidnapping a capital offense punishable by death......
Except the government herself is interested in this kidnapping activities.....
Nigerians as of today, now see kidnapping as another way of cashing out.
So saaaaadddddddd.
