Nigeria Police lied about their role in my freedom-Kidnapped Anglican Archbishop

The Nigerian police lied when it claimed it helped free a kidnapped Anglican cleric, the cleric has said.

The Archbishop of the Niger Delta Province of the Anglican Communion, Ignatius Kattey, was freed on September 14 after he was kidnapped on September 6 in Eleme, Rivers State. His wife, Beatrice, kidnapped at the same time with him, had been freed earlier.

The police had stated that it played a major role in the cleric’s release. The Rivers police spokeswoman, Angela Agabe, had claimed in an interview with Punch Newspapers that “the police eventually rescued him.”

But, while speaking to journalists on Wednesday at his home in Alode, Eleme Local Government Area of Rivers State, Mr. Kattey said the police’ stance was complete falsehood. He said he only saw the police on Monday after his releaseon Saturday night.

“The Police did not rescue me. They were not the ones who rescued my wife, Beatrice. I saw the police for the first time two days ago since the incident.

“I have heard the statements made by the Rivers Police Public Relations Officer. The police are telling lies. If you cannot trust the police again, then who can you trust? I told the Commissioner of Police and he has apologised,” the cleric, considered the second most ranking Anglican cleric in Nigeria, said, as reported by Punch
