The pastor, who escaped unhurt, told his community members in Ajoni Local Council Development Area in the state that he escaped when the abductors fell asleep.

“I rose and stealthily moved away from the location into the bush. I kept walking in the bush until Tuesday morning when I got to Eruku, a town in Kwara State.

“I am happy for my escape. I am happy to be reunited with my people and church members. I can see love from the community,’’ he said.
