He was kidnapped\u00a0on December 17 in Anambra State, few days after he returned home from abroad, where he was studying to\u00a0celebrate Christmas with his people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor a week, Father Nonso was in the hands of kidnappers. Government could not do anything, it got to a point where I had to use my arsenal to rescue him,&#8221; Ebube Muonso narrated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI approached a state outside Anambra and begged them to use their tracker to find my brother priest. They tracked him and sent the full location to me. I sent it to security people and they asked me what I want them to do with the information. I told them to go after the kidnappers and rescue our priest, but they told me they usually don\u2019t go into forest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI opted to lead the operation. I called the Chief Security of Adoration and told him to assemble his men, let those who have cutlass bring their cutlass and those who have guns should bring it. I will lead the operation. When they saw that I was serious, that was when police told me I should not worry that they can rescue him, but they lack logistics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had to send N1 million to them. This is a state where we have a governor who receives security vote, but it is individuals that are now funding security.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI called former governor, Chief Willie Obiano, and asked him where the trackers he bought during his tenure were, and he said they were all there. What it means is that we do not have security in this state. May God continue to protect his people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The cleric further disclosed that Nonso&#8217;s phone was never switched off all through his ordeal in the captivity of his abductors because, according to him, they were certain that gey would not be tracked.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cThey knew that there is no security in this state. That is why I said there is no security in Anambra State. Imagine using a tracker from another location to trace kidnappers, yet security refused to act until I opted to use my own security to rescue the victim, and later they accepted and I still paid them N1 million for mobilisation. Only God will lead us,\u201d the priest prayed.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fr Ebube Muonso and Nonso By Publisher Kindly share: Fr Ebube Muonso opens can of worms, says police refused to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3972,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,294,13,2],"tags":[985,986],"class_list":["post-3971","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crime","category-entertainment-showbiz","category-faith","category-news","tag-fr-ebube-muonso","tag-holy-ghost-adoration-ministry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.8 -
