Freed Kwara Church Att+ck Victim Recounts Terrifying Ordeal in T+rrorists’ Den

 

A member of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) from Eruku, Kwara State, who was recently freed from captivity, has narrated the harrowing experience he and others endured while held by t+rrorists in a remote forest.

Speaking about the ordeal, the survivor said the abd¥ctors made it clear from the onset that escape was impossible due to their strong control of the area.

“It was unimaginable because when we got there, we really know that it was a dominated area,” he said. “Even they had to tell themselves that we are bandits and made us to know that there is no one that can just slip away. And with what we saw nobody could escape. They know all the routes surrounding all those bushes within Kwara and other cities.”

The freed victim described the forest as heavily monitored, with the t+rrorists boasting about their grip on the terrain and their ability to detect any movement across the surrounding bushes. He said the captives were constantly guarded, leaving them in fear and uncertainty throughout their stay in the camp.

A total of 38 victims were abd¥cted from the Eruku CAC on Tuesday 18th of November and were released on Sunday November 23, 2025 amid rising k+dnap rate across the nation.
