Confirming the pastor's arrest, Police Public Relations Officer in the State, DSP Celestina Kalu, said the suspect made useful statements to the police, disclosing that investigation was ongoing.

According to the police, trouble started when the pastor introduced a concept of every Wednesday all-night, prayer session he often releases prophecies to the congregation.

The pastor conceiving evil intentions, allegedly prophesied to his victims of two weeks all night prayers for them to ward off evil manipulations in their family.

During prayer session, the suspect allegedly prayed separately with his victims, in most cases armed with candles and olive oil and in the process had carnal relationship with them.

Speaking to journalists, the housewife who lived around Otougu quarters, Asaba, said ” I did not know if I will get to this level, I found myself two months pregnant after I and pastor enjoyed something in our last all night among the two weeks all nights, and my daughters too”
