Family of gospel singer Jude Nnam confirms his abduction
The family of Jude Nnam has confirmed the abduction of the Nigerian music composer and gospel singer.
Nnam, better known as Ancestor, was said to have been kidnapped on Friday evening in Umunnachi, Anambra.
Augustine Mario, a Catholic priest, first broke the news on Facebook on Saturday, requesting prayers for Nnam’s safety and quick release.
“Please kindly keep Sir Dr. Jude Nnam (Ancestor) in your prayers. He was allegedly kidnapped yesterday evening around 6 pm, in Umunnachi, Anambra State,” he wrote.
“Sir Jude Nnam is the CAN National Music Director and Member of the National Liturgical Commission, CSN.
“May God grant him safety and quick release from his abductors. Amen.”
On Sunday, Nnam’s family took to Facebook to confirm his abduction in a post dispelling rumours about his release.
The family expressed gratitude for the outpouring of prayers and concern, pleading for continued support and prayers for a positive outcome.
“Dear Friends of Dr. Jude Nnam. We want to appreciate you all for your prayers and concern for Him,” the post reads.
“Meanwhile, the message circulating the social media that he has been released by his captors is false and misleading. He is still with the abductors.
“By the Grace of God we all shall rejoice when he eventually comes out. Do continue in your prayers and support. God bless you. From his Family.”
