ECWA Confirms Abduction of Pastor in Plateau State

The Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) confirmed the abduction of Rev. Sundai Bobai Agang, a retired pastor, in Plateau State. The incident occurred early on Tuesday when six gunmen invaded his residence in the Farin Gada community, Jo North Local Government Area, around 5:00 AM.

The assailants took the pastor at gunpoint, leaving his family held hostage. A source close to the family indicated that the family raised an alarm after the pastor was taken away.

The church's spokesman, Dickson Auta, stated that a public statement regarding the incident would be released soon. ECWA has lamented the frequent attacks on its pastors and congregants, noting a previous incident in Kwara State where armed bandits attacked a church service, resulting in injuries and abductions.

The church has urged the public to remain calm and engage in fervent prayers as they monitor the situation.
