Reverend Godson Akubuiro, the General Overseer of The Mountain of Breakthrough Deliverance Ministry, Lagos and 15 other persons including the pastor’s six children have been arrested for alleged printing and circulation of fake naira notes.

When Presented to the press by the SSS, Reverend Akubuiro said he was not using the money for himself but in supporting the less privileged and the needy in his congregation. The Reverend pleaded for mercy likening himself to King David in the bible who sinned several times but was still forgiven and and described as a man after God’s heart.

Mr Mike Fubara, Director of SSS, said the SSS in its effort to trace the source of the fake naira currency in circulation in Lagos state undertook a covert operation to uncover those behind the act, the operation later resulted in the arrest of the 16-man syndicate led by Reverend Akubuir. The SSS director said Items recovered from the suspects include equipment and materials used in printing fake currencies, large quantity of printed fake notes, cut to size blank currency notes and N1.3 million fake naira notes.

The SSS is currently holding all the Reverend and his gang in custody till all investigations are complete and the matter referred to court.


The Kogi State Command of the department of State Security Service has arrested a clergyman, Reverend Godson Akubuiro, his children and his 15 man syndicate for printing and circulation of fake Naira notes

The Director of the State Security Service (SSS), Mr Mike Fubara, told journalists that the major breakthrough came as a result of painstaking investigation for over four months which took the operatives of SSS to Ikorodu in Lagos where they were all arrested.

Fake currency printers and distributors used by the suspects were seized by the SSS.

He told journalist that the prime suspect, Reverend Akubuiro, who is the general overseer of the Mountain of Breakthrough Deliverance Ministry also known as land of solution located at plot 7 Mountain of Breakthrough Avenue Koya Estate, Igbo Olomu, Agric, Ikorodu Lagos, had been into printing and circulating of fake Naira notes.

Mr Fubara explained that in an effort to trace the source of the worrisome fake Naira currency circulation, his men undertook a covert operation to uncover those behind the criminal act.

“The operation took the service four months to get to the root.

“Over 1.3 million fake Naira notes were found with him,” he stated.

Reverend Akubuiro, 49, from Imo State, told journalists that he was an anointed man of God and also owned up to the allegation, attributing it to the work of Satan.

“Satan is always after men of God. Even David in the bible fell to temptation,” he said

He felt remorse and prostrated pleading for mercy from the SSS Director.

Another suspect, Chika Ndukwe, 39, also told Channels Television that he got the fake currency from one of the reverend daughters that he was dating in the last one year.

Equipment and materials used in printing the suspected fake Naira notes and large quantity of the printed fake notes and cut-to-size blank currency notes were recovered from them.

The service said investigation is still ongoing and warned the public to be wary of the existence of fake Naira notes in circulation and to report any suspect to security agencies.

I watched this on the NTA news last night. I must say that no news has held me spellbound in recent times like this one did. It's totally unbelievable and a gross embarrassment to the body of Christ. Anyway, the bible had forewarned us about these false prophets, the so called ''anointed Men of God''.
