The pastors are: Chidioze Eluwa, Chiemela Iroha, Okoro Ohowukwe, Ndubuizi Owuabueze, and Ibeleji Chidinma.
 
A statement issued by the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Ogun State, Abimbola Oyeyemi, disclosed that the only woman among the RCCG pastors had been rescued unhurt.

“The Ogun state police command wishes to inform the general public that one of the kidnapped victims, Mrs Ibelegbo Chidinma, the only woman among them has been rescued unhurt,” he said.
