Priest of St. Raymond Catholic Church in Damba, Gusau, Zamfara state, has pleaded for help to regain freedom.
In a 51-second video clip trending on social media, Suleiman, dressed in a blue T-shirt with boxer shorts, is seen sitting on the ground while calling for help.
Suleiman was kidnapped by bandits in the early hours of June 22 at the rectory located within the church premises in Gusau, the state capital.
The priest said he was the only one being held captive by the bandits.
“I am pleading for help to be freed from this place. They (bandits) told me that they don’t keep people here for long. People don’t stay for up to a week,” he said.
“They told me that killing a person is not difficult for them. They said they are just helping me by keeping me; please, I am asking for help.
“Please save my life in the name of God. Look at my head; look at my legs. I was tied to a robe, and I am the only one in this place.
“Normally, if they kidnap somebody, they don’t waste time.
“If ransom is not paid immediately, they kill the person. Please, for God’s sake, help me…..Sēê Morë
A few seconds to the end of the video, a stick from one of the bandits standing off the camera was seen touching his head.
