Pastor reveals horrendous experience in Boko Haram captivity
A pastor with the Living Faith Church identified as Moses Oyeleke who was abducted by members of Boko Haram sect and spent about 7 months in their captivity has shared his horrible experience in the hands of the terrorists.
He said on April 10, 2019, he was directed by his church to take relief materials to some internally displaced persons’ camps in Chibok when he met the terrorists.
He noted that he was travelling with two trucks—one filled with grains for the IDPs and the other occupied by him, a corp member identified as Abraham Amutu, and the driver. After passing a military checkpoint, he stated that the terrorists who were hiding on treetops successfully waylaid them.
However, they allowed the grain truck driver to escape because they wanted him to tell people what he saw.
The pastor revealed that the terrorists have bakeries and usually go to small markets to transact business.
He stated that when he was captured, he was initially disguised as a farmer but later told the terrorists that he was a pastor and instead of persecution, as he earlier presumed, the terrorists gave him more respect after discovering that he was a pastor.
Oyeleke also narrated how he met several Boko Haram commanders who were graduates.
Concerning the corp member abducted with him, the pastor said, “Amutu, the corps member, according to the Boko Haram insurgents, chose to stay behind. For him, he had found “a new path”. His new path would, however, be closed off in combat with the ISWAP fighters, leaving behind two wives that he had taken in the forest.
