Gunmen Abduct Pastor, Church Member In Kogi 

Gunmen have kidnapped Pastor Friday Adehi of the Christian Evangelical Fellowship of Nigeria (CEFN) Church, Itobe, and a member, Gabriel Ezekiel, along the Ajegwu–Ojodu Road in Ofu LGA, Kogi State.

They were ambushed while returning from a naming ceremony after Sunday service. Vigilantes and security forces are trailing the abductors, while the church has declared prayers and fasting for their release. The Igala Cultural Development Association and Ukomu Igala have urged the state government to deploy drone technology to combat kidnappers hiding in forests.
