The Chaplain of the All Saints Police Protestant Church, Mopol 42 Mobile-Based in Gusau, Pastor Isa Andrew and his 13-year-old daughter identified as Grace, who were whisked away by suspected terrorists, have urged the First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, and other Nigerians to come to their aid to regain freedom from the hands of terrorists.
They made the appeal in a viral two minute forty-four seconds (2:44s) video released by their abductors giving an ultimatum from Saturday to next week Thursday to produce an additional N6 million naira, two boxer motorcycles and one Honda motorcycle or they would marry off his 13-year-old daughter who is in captivity with her father.
Pastor Andrew and his daughter, Grace were abducted at their residence behind the Karma Hotel bypass in Gusau on the 14th of July, 2024 and have been in the terrorists’ enclave for about four weeks now.
According to Pastor Andrew, his family had negotiated with the terrorists and paid N6 million as ransom after it had sold all the items they had and received assistance from people of goodwill.
He said their abductors are still demanding an additional six million naira, two boxer motorcycles and one Honda motorcycle before they would free them.
The cleric cried out that his daughter had been exposed to mistreatment which is why he is appealing to the First Lady and other concerned Nigerians to assist them in regaining freedom.
He also disclosed that he has suffered from diabetes and the continued staying in the terrorists’ enclave is worsening his health situation.
Earlier, the abductors had demanded N60 million which the wife of the victim had negotiated with them and they accepted to receive six million naira. (Channels)
