Dan Nwokolo, the Leader-General of the All Christian Practical Praying Band, has been abducted by unidentified gunmen.

Newsmen gathered that the hoodlums invaded the residence of the cleric in Ufuma, in the Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State, and abducted him after he finished a midnight prayer session.

According to a family source, the abductors picked the cleric from his car in front of his house and immediately zoomed off in their vehicle.

The source said the hoodlums had yet to establish contact with Nwokolo’s family.
