According to Premium Times, a group of church worshippers from Eda Oniyo-Ekiti, who were abducted on April 28 during an open-air crusade by the Christ Apostolic Church, have been freed after 67 days in captivity. The incident involved gunmen invading the event, leading to the abduction of the victims.

Kidnapped worshippers from a Christ Apostolic Church in Ekiti have been released after several weeks in captivity, according to police reports. Unfortunately, one of the victims died during the ordeal.

The governor of Ekiti has announced that free medical treatment will be provided for worshippers who were rescued from kidnapping. He urged people to stop politicizing the incident on social media, emphasizing that security challenges should be addressed through collective support rather than partisan interests.

The Ekiti State Police Command has successfully rescued worshippers who were abducted during an attack on the Christ Apostolic Church located in the Ilejemeje Local Government Area, according to Naija News.

Preliminary medical reports indicate that activist Davis Lichuma has no physical injuries and all his vital organs are intact, following his alleged abduction between June 25 and June 28, 2026. He was found at Kenyatta National Hospital, but remains largely unresponsive and unable to communicate. His family plans to pursue further medical assessments to confirm his condition and investigate the circumstances of his disappearance, as he has only reported pain in his leg.

Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has ordered the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH) to provide free medical screening and treatment for the recently freed Eda Oniyo kidnap victims. This directive was communicated through a statement by the Special Adviser on Media, Yinka Oyebode.
