An attempt by kidnappers to abduct the Bishop of Orlu, Imo State, Most Reverend Augustine Ukwuoma has been foiled by men of the Nigerian army..

Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, Army Spokesman, in a statement on Sunday said troops conducting Exercise GOLDEN DAWN Sector 3 foiled an attempted kidnap and robbery of Ukwuoma at Orlu Diocesan Catholic Secretariat, BSC Road, Orlu Imo State.

He said the troops, in response to a distress call at about 2:30am on Sunday, 31 October 2021, swiftly moved to the scene forcing the assailants to take to their heels thereby abandoning their mission.

“The Bishop, his Secretary and Assistant Secretary are safe and unhurt.

“Troops will continue to deny freedom of action to members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra/Eastern Security Network (IPOB/ESN) and other criminal gangs operating within the sector especially as the elections in Anambra State draws nearer and during the yuletide season.

“Members of the public are advised to report suspicious movement of criminals as well as hide outs of the outlawed IPOB/ESN to law enforcement agencies as the group is only out to intimidate, steal and kidnap law-abiding citizens for ransom,” he said.
