Archbishop Uka Uka Osim of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, his wife, Anne Osim and son, Roland Uka Osim have been kidnapped at gunpoint.

The family, alongside three other clergymen, were kidnapped on the 1st of May 2024, in Abia State.

They were travelling to Awka in Anambra State on evangelical duties when the armed men accosted them.

The three priests kidnapped alongside the Osim family have been identified as Azuka Ochu, Moses Okafor and Anderson Akwazie.

Their kidnap was confirmed by the administrator of the spiritual organisation in Abia State, BCS, Bishop Denis Onuoha.

He said four days after the kidnap, the abductors had yet to reach out to anyone.

“We are very worried but we are assured that the Almighty Father whom they worship and work for with total devotion will help them out”, he said.

While he called on security agencies to step in and rescue the clergymen, he said they are deep in prayers believing that the Archbishop and his brethren will be rescued unhurt.

Police authorities in both Anambra and Abia States are yet to react to the kidnap.
