1. Most of the crime were sexual
2. Financial
3. Murder

I like the final word

Faith should heal, not destroy. The pulpit should guide, not trap.

I guess all 99% of Nigerian christains are "wolves in sheep clothing". In fact, CAN is lion in lamb clothing.

Yes, many of them from south west because the region has zero tolerance for nonsense. Other regions aren't doing enough, that's why you're not seeing the news from there.

I'm talking about their sexual exploits.

and you failed to mention pastor udoka ukachukwu a benin church pastor I can't remember the church name now he impregnated a NNPC benin senior staff wife(eniobong isinguyo)and still colluded to kill the husband to inherit his properties imagine how a wife could be promiscuous this was a full house wife whom the husband really took care of the pastor stabbed the NNPC man (victor isinguyo)to death and set him ablaze in his car.

Both the pastor and the akunnnah woman were sentenced to death but I read the woman has been released imagine that??

Also one prophet Alfa babatunde sotitobire in Akure was sentenced to life imprisonment when a child was kidnapped in his church during a service and the mother didn't know where about they said the kid was later found buried in the church so his church building was burnt down sha

When some people open their mouths, gross ignorance that should have been hidden inside them become exposed.

Who told you that any of these represent Christianity. A slave can never understand why the children of their Owner act so freely. A slave of Allah can never ever understand why God's children operate with freedom!

Hope thunder fire and kill that Pastor? In reality, we needy to be cautioning our love ones and some friends to be very wary of pastors. Not just a particular pastors but all pastors. The spirits dwelling in all of them is so erratic, could be like a dove spirit in a second and another second turn to demons, rapist, killer, kidnapping, murderer etc..........all pastors are so prone to different erratic spirits cos of too much encounter with bad people.....they are always possessed.

My brother… ladies don’t listen when they are advised to be careful with pastors…. You are lucky to have friends and family who are already aware of the dangers of getting too close to this so called pastors ..

Two or three years ago I met a lady in Asaba wearing a necklace with Pastor Kings picture on it…. Fear catch me 😮😳…. When I expressed my concern, she said it’s for her protection and I should forget about what I heard about Pastor kings.
