His statement reads, “earlier today, I decided to go out of my schedule to see my Children who God delivered from the den of the kidnappers while they were on their way to the venue of the Let’s Go Fishing Exercise.

“To the Glory of God, they are Hale and Hearty.

“It is my prayer that the peace of and kingdom of God will be established in Kaduna State and our nation Nigeria and all locations where the children of God are across the world in JESUS name (AMEN). Have a blessed day. EAA
