Abuja Police Warn Churches After Foiled Kidnap Plot

The police in Abuja issued a warning to churches regarding the sharing of personal achievements during testimonies, following a foiled kidnap plot against Prophetess Elizabeth. The warning was announced by Adamu Muazu, the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of the Intelligence Response Team, during a press briefing where four church members were paraded as suspects.

The plot aimed to kidnap Prophetess Elizabeth after she shared a testimony about her accomplishments. Muazu emphasized the need for church leaders, especially those in isolated areas, to enhance security measures for evening services.

He cautioned worshippers to be aware that not everyone in a congregation may have good intentions, urging them to consider security risks when attending services that end late at night. Notably, some suspects were closely connected to the victim, including her driver and a bodyguard to the church's head pastor.

The police expressed concerns about the potential exploitation of information shared during religious gatherings by individuals with criminal motives.
