Prophet Taiwo Odebiyi of the Cherubim and Seraphim, Maberu Parish, located in Offin in the Sagamu area of Ogun State, has landed in trouble for allegedly setting a 21-year old lady, Sukura Owodunni, on fire during deliverance prayers. 
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened on 17th August, 2023, when the victim, Owodunni visited the church for a special prayer at the Prophet’s invitation.
The cleric, Prophet Odebiyi, was said to have directed the victim to buy Amazing Grace perfume, local eggs and a candle for the special prayer over an undisclosed matter that brought her to the church.
However, tragedy struck while praying for her as Prophet Odebiyi was said to have poured the perfume on the lady’s body and lit the candle. The lady, Owodunni, was said to have been caught up in flames, causing serious burns to her chest, shoulder and legs.
Following the ugly incident, the matter was reported to the Police and Prophet Odebiyi was immediately arrested after the Divisional Police Officer in Adigbe, CSP Abdulfattah Ogunsanya, and his men stormed the premises.
This was confirmed by the Police Public Relations Officer of the Ogun State Command, SP Omolola Odutola, who stated further that investigation had commenced to unravel the circumstances surrounding the case.
“The lady was said to have been abandoned to fend for her medical bills after the incident. The victim has been taken to the hospital for medical attention.”
“Our men have arrested the suspect. The case will be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department after the preliminary investigation is perfected,” Odutola stated.
Prophet Odebiyi may likely be charged before the Court if he is found culpable for negligence under the Criminal law of the State but that will be after the conclusion of investigations by the Police.
