Two cows worth ₦1.9 million have been stolen from the Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) Testimony Parish in Egbeda, Oyo State. The cows were intended for the church’s adult harvest thanksgiving celebration on November 17, 2024.
The theft occurred on November 11, as the church was preparing for the event. Despite efforts to locate the cows, they remain missing, prompting the church to seek financial donations to replace them in time for the celebration.
In a Facebook post, the church appealed for prayers and assistance, saying: “Dear Celestians and the General Public, these two large cows were stolen from our premises in Elerumoke, Egbeda, Iyana Ajia. They were meant for the 9th adult harvest thanksgiving this Sunday, November 17, 2024.”
The church called on anyone with information to come forward, encouraging the public to contact the parish shepherd for assistance or updates on the missing cows.
