Members of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church took to the streets of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, to protest the rising insecurity in the country and demand the immediate release of abducted schoolchildren and teachers in Oyo State.

In a video shared via X on Monday, the church members were seen marching peacefully while carrying placards and chanting slogans against kidnapping, banditry and attacks on schools.

Some of the placards displayed messages such as “Stop Kidnapping,” “Stop Insecurity,” “We Want End of Banditry,” “Release Our Abducted Students in Captivity,” and “We Want End of Attacks on Our Schools.”

During the procession, the protesters repeatedly called on the government to take urgent action to secure the country and rescue the victims.
