PASTOR ABSCONDS WITH MEMBER'S N10M BANK LOAN

A member of a Lagos church had presented a sum of N10 million before his pastor for special prayers for a business he intended starting only for him to get defrauded by the man of God.

The popular pastor known as Pastor Timothy Gabriel who resides in Ejigbo, Lagos is currently under the searchlight of the Nigeria Police after absconding with a church members’ N10million.

According to PM News reportage, The victim (namewithheld) reportedly obtained the loan from a bank with an interest which he intended to use to start a new business.

It was gathered that before the victim went to the bank to process the loan, he informed the pastor whom he regarded as his spiritual father, who then promised to offer prayers to God so that the loan would be obtained successfully.

When the victim finally got the loan, he informed the pastor about it and the pastor reportedly told him that he had a revelation from God that the money was 'blood money' and if he used it for the business he intended to use it for, it will be unsuccessful.

He told him to bring the money so that he would anoint it and offer some prayers for three days before he would use it to start the business.

Heeding to his pastor's warning, the victim took the money to the Pastor at his home at Jakande Estate, Ejogbo which also serves as his church and there he was told to return for it in three days.

“I will anoint the money and do special prayers on it for three days” the pastor reportedly said.

The victim, who did not suspect any foul play, went back home and returned after three days as told, to collect his money but unfortunately the pastor had eloped with the money and no property of his was in sight.

Confused and at a loss of what to do at first, he later reported the case to the Police.

Police sources at Ejigbo Division have also confirmed the incident and said they were on the trail of the pastor.
