Months After Abduction, CAC Eda-Oniyo Worshippers Rescued in Ekiti

The Ekiti Police Command says worshippers kidnapped during an April 28 attack on Christ Apostolic Church, Eda-Oniyo, have been freed after months in captivity. The victims were rescued through intelligence-led operations by the Nigeria Police Force, the military, Amotekun Corps, local hunters and other security agencies. They have been taken to hospital for medical checks and treatment. The Commissioner of Police, Falade Adegoroye, praised the professionalism and teamwork of all security stakeholders. He also thanked the state government and residents for their support and urged citizens to report any suspicious activity to the nearest police station or through the command’s emergency line.

The joint effort by police, military, and Amotekun clearly paid off, though it also suggests gaps remain if it took months to trace the kidnappers.

If intelligence-led ops are so effective, they still shouldn't need months to locate those worshippers.

Church communities can collaborate regularly with local security teams, sharing any suspicious movement to avoid prolonged investigations.
