 Pastor Michael Abiodun of The Light House Gospel Church, Oluwo, Owode Egba, in the Obafemi Owode local government area, has been detained for reportedly having carnal knowledge and impregnating a 12-year-old daughter of a member of his church.

The 48-year-old preacher was arrested after Owode Egba Divisional Headquarters learned that the victim's mother had joined the church as a result of a spiritual issue that had resulted in the deaths of two of her daughters.

She rushed to the church for deliverance in order to prevent the victim from suffering the same tragedy.

[9/6, 12:02 AM] Uyah Humphrey Chinonso: On a fateful day, the pastor, who is a father of three, instructed the victim's mother to send her to him for special prayers. When the victim arrived, however, the pastor took her into a room inside the church and forcibly had carnal knowledge of her, resulting in pregnancy.

Following the information, CSP Olasunkanmi Popoola, the DPO for the Owode Egba division, dispatched his detectives to the scene, where the rogue pastor was quickly apprehended.

He admitted to the crime during questioning but put the blame on the devil. He also admitted that he deflowered the victim, a JSS 2 pupil.

The victim's mother told the police that she didn't know that her daughter was pregnant until seven months later.

The girl, who gave birth to a baby three months ago, told the police that she didn't notify her mother about what happened because the pastor had threatened her with dire consequences if she did.

The state police command's spokesperson, SP Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed the incident, and the state Commissioner of Police, CP Lanre Bankole, has ordered the suspect to be transferred to State Criminal Investigation Department for further questioning and possible prosecution.
