ABEOKUTA– The Founder and General Overseer of The Church of Lord, Olomore in Abeokuta, Prophet Ebenezer Ajigbotoluwa has been arrested by men of the Ogun State Police command for defiling and impregnating two under aged sisters.
According to a press release made available to newsmen by the police public relations officer DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the suspect was arrested following a report by the mother of the victims who reported at Lafenwa police station.
She stated that she fell sick sometimes in 2018 and was taken to the church for spiritual healing, adding 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 16years and 13 years of age unknown to her.
It was further discovered that the pastor impregnated the two under age girls and went on to procure abortion for them in a private clinic.
It was also alleged that the prophet defrauded the family of Two million naira 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 has been deserted.
The Commissioner of Police 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 5am”
“On interrogation, the suspect confessed to the crime leveled against him and that it was the reason why he ran away when he heard that police are looking for him”
“Recovered from his home are assorted dangerous charms” the statement reads
Meanwhile, the commissioner of police CP Edward A Ajogun has ordered the suspect to be transferred to state criminal investigation and intelligence department for discreet investigation.
He also warned those hiding under the umbrella of religion to perpetrate evils to desist from it or meet their Waterloo.
The CP therefore appealed to members of the public to beware of those wolves in sheep skin masquerading as men of God as they were out to milk them dry before destroying their lives
