robbers stormed the parish house of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Umualumaku,
Ehime Mbano Local Government Area, Imo State.

Dieme, his curate, Rev. Fr. Christian Obioha and a resident priest, Rev. Fr.

Vanguard gathered that Fr. Obiukwu is taking refuge in the
parish after surviving onslaught from the Boko Haram insur-gents in the
North-East.

valuables, including mobile phones, laptops, wrist watches and some cash.
He said the five-man gang gained entry into the chancery at
3a.m., tied them up and demanded for N5 million.
