Unknown gunmen on Monday June 22 shot
dead the Lagos state Coordinator of The
Lord’s Chosen Charis-matic Revival
Ministries, Pastor Chukwuemeka Okpokpo, at
Apple Junction, Amuwo Odofin area of the
state.

According to a report by Vanguard, the
gunmen, in a motorcycle, trailed the pastor
from a bank where he had gone to withdraw
N3million for the church, fired shots into the
air, which sent people scampering for safety.
Witnesses said Pastor Okpokpo tried to
escape when it became obvious that he was
the target. He reportedly slowed down on
reaching a bad spot in the road, and that was
when the hoodlums shot at the tyres of the
Chosen vehicle he was driving, which caused
the car to stop.

One of the gunmen then got down from their
motorbike, walked to the vehicle and shot
Pastor Okpokpo in the stomach. He was said
to have waited to ensure that Okpokpo was
no longer breathing before he took the nylon
bag containing the money, went back to his
two colleagues in the motorbike and they all
took off.

Residents were said to have rushed to the
scene then raised an alarm when they found
out that the victim was wearing the Lord’s
Chosen reflective jacket. Some of them were
said to have alerted members of the church,
who rushed him to the church’s clinic at
Ijesha.

When news of the tragedy filtered in, those
who knew him wept uncontrollably. It was
learnt that a prayer session aimed at
resurrecting him reportedly took
place between 12.30p.m. and 8p.m. Some of
the church members thought that the gunmen
could have been hired assassins and not
robbers.

The Lagos State Police Command said it had
begun investigation into the murder.
Okpokpo’s body has been taken to his home
town in Amizi, Ikwuano Local Government
Area of Umuahia of Abia.

RIP pastor.

Internet banking has its own security risks.

But most of the Choosen mopol believed that the choosen vest/apron is a bullet resistant and I've read many testimonies from Choosen members to that.

Anyway, may be it doesn't work on pastors. May he rest in peace.
