The four Catholic nuns kidnapped on Sunday along Okigwe-Umulolo on their way to mass have been released by their kidnappers.
The good news was revealed in a statement on Tuesday by The Sisters Of Jesus The Saviour (Generalate), signed by its Secretary-General, Sr Zita Ihedoro.
Nollywood Times on Sunday reported that the four sisters, Johannes Nwodo, Christabel Echemazu, Liberata Mbamalu, and Benita Agu, were abducted by gunmen on their way to morning mass.
The statement by Ihedoro read partly, “With hearts full of joy, the sisters of Jesus the Saviour wish to announce the unconditional and safe release of four of our sisters who were abducted around Okigwe-Umulolo area on August 21, 2022.
“Today is a memorable day for us, therefore, we wish to share this joy with all men and women of goodwill who, in one way or the other, have contributed to the quick and safe release of our dear sisters.
“We sincerely appreciate and thank you for your prayers and moral supports during this difficult moment. May Jesus the Saviour whom we have come to serve bless, protect and provide for you, especially in times of difficulty.”
