Apostle John Okoriko, the founder of Solid Rock Kingdom Church in Akwa Ibom State, has been kidnapped by gunmen.
On Wednesday in Uyo, the state capital, police officials confirmed the clergyman’s kidnapping to Channels Television.
Okoriko was kidnapped at his church residence in Ibekwe Akpan Nya, Mkpat Enin Local Government Area (LGA) of the state, around 5 p.m. on Tuesday.
According to Channels Television, the gunmen jumped through the gate and got entrance to the pastor’s home.
They allegedly shot into the air and forced their way into his living room, dragging the octogenarian outside of his home and whisking him away into a nearby jungle.
“We have received the report and the Commissioner of Police has ordered an investigation to commence,” said Odiko Mcdon who is the Police Public Relations Officer in Akwa Ibom.

“As I speak a lot has been done already; I want to believe that we will get to the root of it (the abduction) in no distant time.”
Mcdon explained that a crime has been committed, saying that the police command has been working assiduously to unravel the crime and bring the perpetrators to book.
The abduction comes months after suspected kidnappers laid siege to Ekparakwa in Oruk Anam LGA and neighbouring villages in Mkpat Enin.
On whether the kidnappers have made any demand for ransom, Mcdon said the command was not aware of any such demand at the time of the report.
