The incident that happened in Ogun State, a south western state of Nigeria, recently could be akin to a popular Fireboy DML’s single Party Scatter as the congregations of The Church of Lord were scattered in different directions as the evil deeds of the church pastor were revealed.
A house of God usually regarded as a place of safety, last haven for peace and refuge, has a different meaning for Ebenezer Ajigbotoluwa, General Overseer of The Church of Lord, Olomore, Abeokuta, Ogun State.
To him, it is a place where lustful desires and untamed libido are satisfied. Police in Ogun State have arrested the Founder of The Church of Lord for allegedly defiling and impregnating two teenage sisters (names withheld), even as he dupes mother of the girls to the tune of N2million.
The suspect was arrested following a report at the Lafenwa Police Station by the mother of the victims.
“The suspect was arrested following a report by the mother of the victims who reported at Lafenwa police station that she fell sick sometime in 2018 and was taken to the church for spiritual healing. She stated further that the pastor took advantage of her sickness and asked her entire family of six to move into the church premises to avoid being afflicted with the same sickness. There and then, the prophet started having sex with her daughters of 16 years and 13 years of age unknown to her,” narrate Ogun State Police spokesman
He said: “The pastor impregnated the two underaged girls and went on to procure abortion for them in a private clinic. Aside from this, the prophet also defrauded the family of N2million cash which he took for what he called spiritual cleansing.
“Upon the report, the DPO Lafenwa Division, CSP Muraina Ayilara, led his men to the church but the place was deserted. The CP then directed that the suspect be hunted for and brought to book. In compliance with the CP’s directive, the DPO and his men embarked on intelligence and technical based investigation, and their efforts paid off when the prophet was arrested on the 6th of August 2020 at about 5:00am. On interrogation, the suspect confessed to the commission of most of the allegations leveled against him and that it was the reason why he ran away when he heard that police were looking for him.”
Oyeyemi further said the state Commissioner of Police, Edward Ajogun, had ordered that the suspect be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for discreet investigation.
