Members of the Taraya Ekklesiyoyin
Kristi A Nigeria (Fellowship of Churches of Christ in Nigeria, TEKAN),
have been thrown into confusion following the kidnapping of their
President, Dr. Emmanuel Dziggau.
Dziggau was said to have been kidnapped
on Monday along with his deputy, Rev. Illiya Anto, and a retired
reverend in the church, Yakubu Dzarma.
Anto was later released on health grounds.
TEKAN General Secretary, Rev. Moses Ebuga, told newsmen in Jos on Tuesday that the three men were kidnapped in Kaduna.
Dziggau is also the president of
Haddiyar Ekklesiya Kristi A Nigeria (United Church of Christ in Nigeria)
and the TEKAN/ECWA bloc leader in the Christian Association of Nigeria.
The three men were said to have been kidnapped at the church crusade ground along the Kaduna-Abuja highway on Monday morning.
It was learnt that the masked gunmen stormed the crusade ground and picked the three men while other church members fled.
