“When we arrived the church premises, the security man attached to the church was not around. The container was locked from the outside with a padlock. “The Pastor of the church was embarrassed to see us, but by

the time we explained our mission to him, he in company with others gave us the go ahead. When we opened the container, Adam was found.

He disclosed that some of the suspects who are on the wanted list were transferred to Maiduguri for further investigation and prosecution.

He said he is personally financing the activities of the group, and appealed to Governor Akinwunmi Ambode for logistic support.
