In 2022, armed men kidnapped a Nigerian priest and held him hostage for 33 agonizing days. Now he is sharing his story. Father Stephen Ojapah, the parish priest who survived 33 days in captivity, joins alongside Emmanuel Ogebe, managing partner of the U.S.-Nigeria Law Group, who has closely followed the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Father Stephen recalls the day armed men stormed his parish and abducted him, while Emmanuel discusses the threats facing Christians across Nigeria today.
