French Priest regains freedom

This must really be a new year worth celebrating for the French Roman Catholic priest and his family. According to a report by Vanguard,
The French Roman Catholic priest kidnapped in Cameroon by the Boko Haram on Nov. 13 last year has been freed.
He has returned home to the embrace of his family and French President Francois Hollade in Paris. George Vandenbeusch, 42, was kidnapped by armed men who broke into his church in the north of Cameroun and then taken to Nigeria where he was held hostage.
He was welcomed at the Villacoublay military base, near Paris, by President Hollande, who praised his “courage” and warned French people in danger zones of the risk of kidnapping.
