According to him, “I am from Delta State. I am a trader and I have also worked as a truck driver. My wife handed me over to kidnappers and I was brought here. My hands and legs were chained. People have been made to believe that I was insane. I don’t know where to go from here because I am confused.”

It was gathered that the Holy Family Church was set ablaze by irate mob before the police arrived as they used teargas to disperse the mob.
