Woman Stabs Pastor To Death In Cross River

A randy pastor, Oliver Akpan, has met his match recently in Cross River State.

Pastor Oliver was said to have attempted molesting a married woman after a 3-day fasting and prayer in the disguise of rounding up a spiritual deliverance.

According to Pulse.ng, pastor Oliver whose church is located in Akpabuyo local government area of the state, is married with six children. He was reported to have been approached by a young woman simply identified as Ekamma, over a spiritual matter. The pastor recommended the 3-day dry fasting for her to be carried out in the church and on the final day, there would be a spiritual bath so as to seal up the ‘spiritual victory’.

The pastor who is said to be known for sexually molesting both married and single ladies in his church took the food-deprived woman to a stream for the spiritual bath. The pastor was said to have informed the woman that part of the bath included having sex with her but when she refused. He however attempted to forcefully have carnal knowledge of the woman.

In self-defense, the woman allegedly got hold of a sharp stick, stabbing him in the stomach before she ran to the village to alert other residents. By the time they got to the spot, the wounded pastor had lost consciousness as he bled profusely. He was rushed to a hospital where doctors confirmed he died before he was brought in. The woman was initially arrested by the police but was released on bail while investigations are still on going.

Meanwhile the founder and leader of Apata Adu­ra Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Ekute, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, former Pastor Adekunle Afolabi, has coverted to Islam after practicing Christianity for over 25 years.
