Four reverend sisters have been abducted by gunmen in the Okigwe-Umulolo axis of Okigwe LGA of Imo state.
It was gathered that they were seized while on their way to a thanksgiving mass in the LGA.
Zita Ihedoro, secretary-general of The Sisters of Jesus The Saviour Generalate, confirmed their abduction in a statement issued on Sunday.
The statement identified the abductees as sisters Johannes Nwodo, Christabel Echemazu, Liberata Mbamalu and Benita Agu.
The sisters asked all religious faithful in the country to pray for the quick and safe return of the victims.
The statement reads partly, “Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, it is with great pain that we bring to your notice the kidnapping of four of our sisters mentioned above.
“The sad event of their abduction occurred around Okigwe-Umulolo area this morning shortly after the sisters were on their way to thanksgiving mass of our sister.
“We implore for intense prayer for their quick and safe release. May Jesus the savior listen to our prayers and may our mother Mary intercede for the unconditional release of our dear sisters.
