Kidnapped senior Anglican cleric, Most Rev. Prof. Godwin Okpala, has been freed by his abductors.
Archbishop Okpala was set free alongside his driver.
He confirmed his freedom in a post on his Facebook page, Thursday morning.
The clergyman simply wrote: “Praise the Lord!”
Okpala, a retired Archbishop of the Niger Province and Bishop of Nnewi, was released one month after he was abducted.
He went missing on his way to Umuchu, a community in Anambra State, for a burial ceremony.
Details of his release were still sketchy as of 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.
