Gunmen have kidnapped the chief Priest of Owerri ancient kingdom in the Owerri Municipal council, Reginald Ejiogu.
and the Chairman of Umunwagbara village in Owerri Nchi-Ise kingdom, Sunny Unachukwu.

It was gathered that the chief priest and the community leader were kidnapped on Saturday in Owerri, the state capital.

According to PUNCH, an eyewitness, who does not want to be mentioned for security reasons, said that the victims were abducted along Christ Church Road in Owerri.

“We have never seen this one before. This is a desecration on the culture and tradition of the Owerri people. The eyes of the gods, kidnapped? No, this is unbelievable,” the source said.
