Police arrest Pastor for burying charm in church premises
(Nigeria) The police in Benin, Edo State arrested one
Apostle Ikenna Okafor on Sunday for allegedly burying charm in his church
premises in Benin.
The identity of what the suspect buried was unknown even
though residents around the church located along Esigie St. in Benin alleged it
was a live animal.
The police took away the suspect to avoid being lynched by
angry residents who stormed the church.
An eyewitness, Mr Chinedu Nnamdi, said his father woke him up
around 2 a.m., on Saturday night to watch what the Pastor was doing.
According to him, the pastor buried something in front of
the church and later performed a little ritual by walking round the church
several times.
Confirming the report, the Police Public Relations Officer
of the Edo Police Command, Osifo
Abiodun, said the suspect was under investigation.
The spokesman explained that the suspect has made useful
statements that will assist the police in their investigation.
