A human rights leader and chairman Board of Trustees of the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, Mr Emeka Umeagbalasi has given clues to the whereabouts of a missing bishop in Anambra State.

Umeagbalasi, an indigene of Ezinifitte in Aguata Local Government Area of the state was on 5th December attacked by daredevil gunmen masquerading as freedom fighters, who dispossessed him of his Hilux van at gunpoint, terrifying his family members. He was travelling with his family from his hometown to his base in Onitsha when he was attacked. One day after the incident, Bishop Ndubuisi Obi of Nnewi Diocese had raised an alarm over the whereabouts of Most Rev. Prof.

But Umeagbalasi who narrated his experience on the same day the bishop went missing said there are indications that the cleric may have been one of many people abducted on the day he was attacked, as the description of his car fits that of those who were abducted on the day of the attack.
