When Daybreak visited the family house in Essien Town, Pastor Theo Effiong told Daybreak that, “I am a man of God, I will not pay them a Kobo and they must release my wife” adding “if I pay them any money, then I don’t know the God I serve.”

At as press time, detectives from the Anti-Cultist and Kidnappers Squad had swing into action to locate the kidnappers Den.

Pastor Theo, also a Co-founder of Prayer City, a non-denominational prayer place (House) located along Marina Road, Calabar is of the opinion that, he is trusting on the God he knows and served that his wife will be released without paying any ransom to the evil people.
