A Ghanaian-Nigerian pastor has been found dead days after being kidnapped by masked gunmen, with another pastor cleric still being held for ransom.
Emmanuel Hills was the pastor and founder founder of The Wonderful Grace of God Evangelical Ministry in Bokkos.
According conflict reporter Masara Kim on X:
Emmanuel was abducted on Friday, August 28, together with Pastor Gabriel Joseph Dipak of the Christ Apostolic Church while the two were travelling from Jos to Bokkos.
Witnesses cited by Kim said armed men, identified as Fulani militants, set up a roadblock along the Barkin Ladi-Bokkos road, less than a mile from military checkpoints positioned on both sides of the route.
The assailants stopped a commercial minivan carrying nine passengers, removed the two pastors from the vehicle, and seized mobile phones and cash from the remaining passengers before releasing them.
While Hill’s body was discovered near where the abduction took place, Dipak is still being held, with his family being contacted with ransom demands.

I can not see my posts . so i have no way of knowing if potestia kept my post or not. I do wonder how a lutheran pastor can just ignore a lot of scripture just so they can get along with baptist pastors. Instead they should just see them as prelutherans so they can tell them them the essentual of christianity . here we have a severly injured child we have no idea if she been baptised into Christ Jesus or not. And were not suppose to care because baptist and some others who reject the bible passages reguard it as not essentual .well thats just stupid And there no excuse for it.
that post of mine was intendid For another articles topic. and the post i posted on this artcles topic seems to have vanished. Im just wondering if i wrote a article for protesta if the words might get mixed up with other other peoples articles . what that article would have me saying . lol
Ive caught my self before posting to wrong articles when my kindle fire tablet changed the article to a previous one i was looking at just when i hit the post button. On other religion sites . that most likly what happened here too . Most times my kindle fire does great for the cost of it. And if it gets broken or infected with viruses . its less exspencive to get a new one . Than the cost of what lots of people use for their means of connecting to the internet
There was a baptist pastor recently murdered over there that christian post still has its story about on its website . Nigeria is one of the countries where Christians of all denominations are hunted down and killed or hurt or done worse too. years ago a Lutheran pastor named Richard Wurmbrand and his wife sabrina worked to help christians who found them selves in bad situations as Richard was for fourteen years of his life being tortured by communists regime that took over romania at the time . there was a book about him called tortured for Christ . my dad knew him. Lots of other lutheran pastors did also as richard and his wife Sebrina were part of those lutheran scandanavian church circles in those times.
