CYRIACUS IZUEKWE
Facts have emerged on how a 50-year old Prophet, Tayo Shobowale, of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, engaged a 17-year old Church member in sex while conducting deliverance on her inside Church.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at Oke-Igbala, Ifo, Ogun State, where the Church is located.
The suspect, Prophet Tayo Shobowale, was said to have engaged the victim in prayers inside the Church and in the middle of the prayer, he brought out his manhood, removed the girl’s pant and penetrated her.
He has been arrested and detained by the Police operatives from Ogun State Command, where he is undergoing interrogation over the dastardly act.
It was gathered that the Prophet had invited the victim to the Church for prayers, where he rubbed oil inside her private part and penetrated her before he concluded the prayer with candle.
This was disclosed by the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, who confirmed that the Prophet is in Police custody.
Oyeyemi said the suspect was arrested following a report lodged with the Family Support Unit of the Ota Area Command by the victim, accompanied by her mother to the station.
He explained, “The victim reported that sometime in March 2021, the Prophet invited her to the church for prayers and that the prophet took advantage of her being alone with him in the Church to forcefully have unlawful carnal knowledge of her”.
“The victim further stated that after the illicit affair, the Prophet ordered her to take a spiritual bath in the Church with an already prepared candle, which he rubbed all over her body.”
“Since then, the victim complained that she had been having spiritual attacks, which always make her fall down and remain unconscious for hours.”
“Upon the report, the Area Commander, Ota, ACP Muhideen Obe, detailed his Family Support Unit to the scene, where the randy Prophet was promptly arrested.”
“On interrogation, the suspect initially denied the allegations, but when he was confronted by the victim, it was very difficult for him to absolve himself of the allegations.”
The PPRO said the Commissioner of Police, Edward Ajogun, has ordered a thorough investigation of the case and that the suspect be charged as soon as investigation is concluded.
The suspect risks several years of imprisonment if he is charged and tried for defilement, which is a serious offence under the law and found guilty before the Court.
