Late Mrs Eunice Olawale was murdered at about 5:30a.m. on Saturday, as she went for early morning preaching (Morning Cry) close to her residence. Her throat was slit, with her head rested on the bible she used for preaching.
Already, the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Police Command has said that investigation was ongoing to uncover those behind the act, just as miscreants were reported to be on rampage at Arab Road, Omega Paints Road, Pipeline and its environs, terrorising people.
‘They killed her like a chicken’
Speaking to newsmen at their residence, the first daughter of the late deaconess, Jessica Olawale, while crying uncontrollably, said that her mother was killed like a chicken.
The 15-year-old Senior Secondary School 2 student, said:
“Everybody is just saying it is well, nobody can understand how I feel. “She is innocent; she didn’t do anybody any harm. She uses just her megaphone and bible; just preaching.
They just killed her like a chicken and left her there.” Her husband, Olawale Elisha, who is also a pastor at RCCG, said:
“My wife always goes out early in the morning for ‘Morning Cry.’ There was a particular day she went out and she told me that there is a mosque at the back, where they made comments about her preaching. So I just cautioned her.
“This morning (Saturday), she went around 5a.m. and I was still in bed because we did vigil which she participated in for a while because of the ‘Morning Cry’ she planned to undertake.
“Two of my boys are footballers; they went to the field to play. When they came back, they told me that they heard some footballers saying that some hoodlums had butchered a woman who was preaching early this morning.

ReplyDeleteIt is sad. The government and security agencies to do something fact to bring the perpetrators of this crime to book. Crime rate is too high now all across the nation.
ReplyDeleteOh! what a wicked world. whoever is responsible for her death cannot run for so long. God will definitely arrest him/them. Though they might repent and be forgiven to the extent of carrying the bible to evangelise but that won't prevent them from suffering the consequences of their action.
ReplyDeleteMay her soul rest in perfect peace, amen. No matter how you look at it, Late Evangelist Eunice Olawole died in active service, doing the work of her master. It doesn't matter how she died rather what matters is what you are doing when death comes calling.How prepared are you? Jesus is coming soon.
