Former Kaduna Central lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani has reacted to the kidnap of four Reverend sisters in the Okigwe-Umulolo axis of Okigwe Local Government Area (LGA) of Imo State.

Naija News recalls that the reverend sisters were abducted on Sunday morning by the gunmen while on their way to a thanksgiving mass in the area.

The victims are identified as: Sisters Johannes Nwodo, Christabel Echemazu, Liberata Mbamalu and Benita Agu.
