The Nasarawa State Police command on Monday arrested a 46 year-old pastor, Ifeanyi Bernard, for allegedly raping a 13-year-old girl in the Karu Local Government Area of the state.
According to police authorities, the alleged rape took place on November 3 when the pastor was performing deliverance on the teenager.
However, the pastor described the incident as the handiwork of the devil.
While parading the suspect at the Criminal Investigative Department, the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Sani Mohammed, said the suspect was apprehended following a report by the father of the victim, Mr. Martins Ijiwo.
According to the police, the cleric, who lives in the Alikima Mararaba area of the state, lured the victim into his house under the pretext of casting out demons from her.
The police boss said the cleric allegedly pushed her to his bed and raped her repeatedly.
The commissioner said the suspect threatened to kill the victim if she reported the incident to any member of her family.
However, when the father of the girl learnt of the incident, he reported the matter to the police. The police subsequently stormed the pastor’s home and arrested him.
Policemen also recovered bottles of anointing oil from the suspect’s home as well as a bedspread.
The CP said, “The pastor took advantage of his closeness to the girl’s family – who are members of his congregation – to rape their 13-year-old daughter under the guise of casting out demons from her.”
While speaking with our correspondent at the police command, the pastor confessed to the crime, adding that he didn’t know what came over him when he committed the crime.
He said, “I had been into evangelism for some years now and I have been casting out demons from people who have spiritual and family problems before I met this young girl through her father, Mr. Martins Ijiwo.
“I have been a friend of the family for quite some time.
“I used my anointing oil to lure her into my room and all of a sudden, I was carried away and before I knew what was happening, I saw myself making love to her.”
Meanwhile, the police have also arrested four suspects for allegedly kidnapping a Taiwanese, Mr. Chew Williams, on October 6.
“We collected the sum of N7m from the Taiwanese before releasing him,” the suspects said.
It was learnt, however, that the police were only able to recover N750, 000 from the suspects. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Pastor forgot to cast the devil in him first before descending on others. Being in seclusion with a lady is the most dangerous situation one has to be careful with. Prophet Muhammed peace be upon him said, Wgen a man and a woman are in seclusion , the devil is the third party.
ReplyDeleteWas it not your same prophet Muhammad that shows them how to molest little girls... When he went on to marry isha at the age of 9years...?
DeleteBecause of this idiot called himself man of God, that's why nobody want to comment...chai Nigeria
ReplyDeleteNow they will not raise an eyebrow because it is a pastor involved! If it had been a legal marriage, the whole world would be agog with noise! Shameless hypocrites...
ReplyDeleteWhen will people wake up to know that devils are now pastors.
