“For good one week, no water no food” -Abducted actress, Cynthia Okereke narrates ordeal in hands of kidnappers

After being in the kidnappers’ den for seven days, Nollywood actress, Cynthia Okereke who was snatched away alongside her colleague, Clemson Cornel Agbogidi, has narrated her ordeal while in captivity.

Recall that the actors were abducted in Enugu State and released on Wednesday.

The Actors Guild of Nigeria had said the kidnappers released the actors because they were “touched by the spirit of God.”

Speaking in a video on Friday, Cynthia thanked her colleagues, fans, security agencies, and other stakeholders who contributed to their release.

She said they were not fed anything during the seven days they spent in captivity.

The actress said: “My people, this is mama Cynthia Okereke, God is a faithful God and I have every reason to say Hallelujah in the land of the living. I didn’t know I have people and I have friends, good colleagues, people that care for me, people that can pray for me, verge for me and stand on my behalf.

“My BP is high but to God be all glory for all of you, your efforts, your prayers and your encouragement. Mama Cynthia is alive, I will act for you people and will continue to be acting for your people. Me, I will be a late comer there, for good one week, no water no food but today I say to God be all glory forever in Jesus name. God will bless all Nollywood for me.”
