A shocking case of adultery and abduction has been exposed in Ekiti State, where a pastor allegedly snatched and impregnated the wife of his choirmaster, and also kidnapped nine other people, including children.
The pastor, Noah Abraham, is the founder of Christ High Commission Church, Araromi-Ugbesi, in Omuo-Oke, Ekiti State.
He was accused by his choirmaster, Dare Ikuenayo, of deceiving him to allow his wife to stay with him for a month, claiming that she had a gift of prophecy and needed to work for God.
Ikuenayo, who spoke with Vanguard, said that he joined the church in Kabba, Kogi State, and trusted the pastor with his wife, who is the mother of his three children.
However, he said that he later noticed that his wife was not interested in seeing or talking to him anymore.
He said that he was shocked when the pastor announced in the church that he had taken his wife and no one could take her from him.
He said that he tried his best to get his wife back, but the pastor impregnated her and moved her into his house. He said that he was devastated by the pastor’s betrayal and his wife’s infidelity.
The pastor was arrested by the operatives of the Ekiti State Police Command in collaboration with the National Agency for Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) for allegedly abducting more than nine persons, including children.
The police said that the pastor was using his church as a cover to perpetrate his criminal activities. They said that they rescued the victims from his custody and that they would charge him to court after investigation.
