The trial judge, S.O. Benson, said the evidence and confessional statements from the pastor showed that he committed the crimes.


Justice Benson said the prosecution proved the case of murder against the cleric and ordered that he should be killed by hanging him by the neck until he is dead or should be injected with a lethal injection which also kills faster.

Our correspondent reports that the women had visited the pastor’s house in Oyigbo for a discussion on the said pregnancy when he tricked them into a bush and allegedly committed the act in two different locations.

Men of the Rivers State Police Command had on December 17, 2017, arrested Okoroafor following an alarm raised by Ezenwa’s husband over the killing of the three persons.

Speaking to journalists outside the courtroom, the prosecution counsel from the state Ministry of Justice, Precious Ordu, expressed happiness over the judgment.

While noting that the prosecution received several threats in the course of the trial, Ordu expressed delight that justice has prevailed

“Justice has been served to the state, the complainant and the convict.

“This will serve as a deterrent to all those who intend to commit the same offence because it is justice for all,” he said.

On his part, counsel for the defendant, Innocent Ekwu, said he and his team would appeal the judgment.

“We, as counsel for the defendant, have decided to appeal the case. We are going to file our notice of appeal as quickly as possible because we have grounds on which we believe that the defendant did not commit the offence,” he said.

Gargantuan gaga!

Hmmm . As in 4 lives terminated by a single individual All the 4 have their lives terminated just because of a pregnancy that many others are begging God to bless their home with. O ga o

A whole general overseer is even more deadly than boko boys.
These are the results when u are too gullible and believe everything they told u.
Sometimes the members are seeing red flags from their so called pastors but they will defend them just because they want to make their religion relevant.

Trust your Pastor at your own peril.........

Some of Nigerians Pastor are the real definition of devil...

I don't want to read the story, cus it's painful but Nigerians should be careful the way they hold this there God of men to high esteem.

Simple

Good judgement

Truthday:
A

offence,” he said.

Pregnancy that he would have asked for forgiveness from his Church members and they would have still forgiven him for impregnating his Choir mistress, he decided to erase evidence by killing everyone that knows about the pregnancy. He deserves the judgement.

Once your girlfriend brings up her pastor in any conversation you're having, just plan on dumping her.
The day your girlfriend talk about her pastor, whether for good or bad, is the day you should unfriend her in your heart and begin to look for another girl.

Never commit to a Nigerian woman who listens to her pastor or prophet if you wayto live long.

In all you do, fvck any girl you want but never marry a woman you did not disvirgin.

All these pastors sleep with these church workers smh

When God hasn't called u,u will know by this singular actions.

Werey wey call himself General overseer. Overseeing death.

After women, fear pastors
