Kidnappers of Rev Fr John Ubaechu, the Parish Priest of Holy Family Catholic Church, Izombe, Imo State, are demanding N20 million as ransom for the release of the clergyman.

Ubaechu was abducted in Ejemekwuru on Sunday evening while on his way to attend the annual retreat of priests of the Owerri Catholic Archdiocese, Imo.

His abduction was confirmed by the Owerri Catholic Archdiocesan Chancellor and Secretary, Rev Fr Patrick Mbarah on Monday in Owerri, in a statement.

A source from the church, who spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, on condition of anonymity, on Wednesday in Owerri, said the kidnappers had contacted some persons through whom they first demanded N50 million, before they reduced the amount.

“Most parishioners have been extremely worried about the safety of the priest since Fr John was kidnapped and his abductors are still keeping him up to today being Wednesday,’’ he said.

The source said, though there were conflicting reports on the kidnappers’ demand, nobody is sure if the demand is actually coming from the abductors.

“Some people are saying that the kidnappers are demanding N50 million, some N20 million and some N10 million, the fact remains that Fr. John is still with the kidnappers, we keep praying for his safe release.

He also pleaded with the state government and security agencies to intervene and help rescue the priest, because he is a missionary who does not have anything yielding money for him,’’ he said.

Another parishioner, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, noted with regret that the abductor forced the priest to remove his cassock, forcing him out of his official vehicle before taking him away.

“We got information that the kidnappers forced our priest to remove his white cassock and took him out of his vehicle before they went off.

“Naval personnel at Izombe later recovered the vehicle,’’ he said.

He, however, appealed to the abductor to have a change of heart and release the priest.

Mr Blogger Is Praying For You, Say BIG AMEN.

The Ogun State Police Command has launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr Adedokun Oluyemi, the supervisor of Solution One Hotel, located in the Ago Oko area of Abeokuta, the state capital.

PUNCH Online gathered that Oluyemi’s unconscious body was discovered in his hotel room around 6am on Saturday.

It was gathered that the bar assistant at the hotel, identified as Taiyelolu, reportedly found Oluyemi unresponsive after multiple attempts to reach him.

Concerned by the lack of response, she was said to have alerted the police at the Oke Itoku division.

According to the spokesperson for the command, Omolola Odutola, there were no visible signs of violence on the deceased’s body.

She explained, “The report was made by a bar attendant, Taiyelolu, who, upon finding the door locked and after several unsuccessful attempts to gain entry, forced the door open and discovered Mr Oluyemi lying lifeless on the bed.

“Police emergency services, through the divisional police officer, were immediately dispatched to the scene, and Mr Oluyemi was transported to the State Hospital, Ijaye, Abeokuta.

“There was no mark of violence on his body when the team of first responders arrived at the hotel.”

Despite medical intervention, the police disclosed that Oluyemi was pronounced dead shortly after arrival at the hospital.

The command’s spokesperson added that the State Criminal Investigation Department would take over the case to conduct a thorough review of the preliminary findings.

“The body has since been deposited at the State Hospital mortuary for an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.

“The police are actively investigating the incident, and efforts are underway to notify and support the bereaved family during this difficult time,” she said.

She also extended the command’s condolences, stating, “Till then, the command commiserates with the colleagues and family of the deceased while advising for medical insurance and checkups for staff.”

This incident follows a similar case reported by PUNCH Online on March 7, when a 62-year-old hotel attendant, Abel Johnson, was found dead in his room at De-Lay Classic Hotel in Kajola Village, near Obafe Town.

Johnson was last seen the night before he was discovered lifeless in his room.
