Abducted Anglican Archbishop, Driver Released 

Date:

By Uche Onyeali 

Kidnapped Anglican cleric, Most Reverend Godwin Okpala has been released alongside his driver, after one month in captivity.

The cleric confirmed his freedom in a post on his Facebook page yesterday morning.

Hundreds of reactions followed immediately, thanking God for his freedom.

Okpala, a retired Archbishop of the Niger Province and Bishop of Nnewi, was released one month after he was abducted.

It would be recalled that he went missing on his way to Umuchu, a community in Anambra State, for a burial ceremony.

Details of his release are still sketchy as at the time of filing this report, but it is being celebrated on various social media platforms of the Anglican Communion.

One of such platforms is the official Facebook page of St Stephens Anglican Church, Nnewi.

Announcing his freedom, the cleric only screamed “Praise the Lord!” on his Facebook page.
