It is always a thing of joy when the Christian faithful assemble to commit themselves unto their maker, especially as a new month beckons.
Nevertheless, it was a sad tale for members of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Oluwatoyi District in Ado-Ekiti, on Monday, when pandemonium broke out during their monthly global crusade.
According to the wife of the pastor in charge of the church, Dr. Ajibade, the suspected thugs led by one Alfa Kudus in their numbers thronged the church premises to disrupt the solemn assembly.
Dr. Ajibade recounts that ” During our Global Crusade on 31st January 2022 at Deeper Life Bible Church Oluwatoyi District Ado-Ekiti, a young man, named Alfa Kudus came with some men to meet one of our members (Brother Imole) during the prayer session and started shouting that his wife was beaten by Bro. Imole.
” They started beating Bro. Imole and within a few seconds about seven persons joined them with a girl in tinted hair before we intervened.
The Pastor of the church told them to settle outside but they failed to listen to him. One of them used a baton to beat Bro. Imole and then used the chairs which are 12 in number that got broken.
” It took the intervention of the Landlord in the street to restore normalcy before the matter was reported to the Police.”
As of the time of filing this report, the matter is under investigation at the Police Area Command in Ado-Ekiti.
