skydivermom 0 #1 May 10, 2007 One of my good friends contacted me yesterday with some horrifying news. Her husband was among the four men kidnapped by the Nigerians! She was able to speak to him around 3 PM our time yesterday so she at least knew he was alive! I haven't heard any updates since last night. Please send prayers/vibes her way This is awful.Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydivermom 0 #5 May 10, 2007 Thanks guys, It is pretty sickening indeed. I spoke to her about an hour ago and she's talked to him twice today already. His company and the American Consolate (sp?) are working to remedy the situation. My friend and her husband have two precious little girls....one of which has been my son'g best friend since they were toddlers!

bob.dino 1 #7 May 11, 2007 Good luck. If it's any consolation, kidnapped Western oilmen are usually released unharmed after the payment of a ransom. It's a pretty messed-up situation in Nigeria - the local peoples of the Niger Delta haven't really shared in the oil wealth and are quite bitter about their treatment at the hands of the Nigerian government.

skydivermom 0 #9 June 5, 2007 My friend's husband was released last week. I haven't been able to speak with her yet on the phone, but she did send me an e-mail. Thanks for all your vibes and prayers. I can't imagine the joy they must be experiencing.Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
