Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria in Nasarawa State, who recently regained his freedom days after he was kidnapped by gunmen in his home, Bishop Joseph Masin, 78, shares his experience with UMAR MUHAMMEDarmed men came to your house around 12 midnight to kidnap you, what came to your mind when you saw them?
When I saw them, what came to my mind was that they should not touch my family since it was me they came for. I spent two days with my kidnappers – that is, Thursday and Friday. I was released on Saturday.The truth is that I wasn’t scared for my life because nothing happens without God’s permission. God was the one who permitted them to come to my house and it was also God that allowed them to take me. If God had not allowed it, they wouldn’t have come to my house.
What advice do you have for the state government on how they can ensure security of lives and property? I want them to put in more effort and be proactive so that such things will not be happening in the state. I’m happy the news went far and wide and was announced everywhere but that is not enough. I want them to get the necessary equipment that will help them fight such criminal activities.All rights reserved.
