Pastor allegedly converts mother & daughter who attend his church, to his wives
A pastor, Mr Timothy
Ngwu of Gods' Favor Ministry, Nsukka, was on Monday docked at a
Magistrates Court in Enugu North for converting another man’s wife and daughter
to his wives.
According to Vanguard,
Veronica Ngwu, the pastor’s wife petitioned the court over the development. The
women he was said to have converted were members of his church.
However, one of the
victims, Calista Omeye, told the court that her husband, Fidelis Omeye
convinced her to meet the pastor as he wanted her to do the will of God through
the pastor and it was with his consent that their daughter was given to
the pastor in marriage.
"My husband was a member of the church and
he introduced me to the church, because he said that the pastor had a
revelation for me (Calista). She said the revelation had to do the will of God
but he later left the church but I refused to leave the church with him.
I have 10 children for him and we were all
members of the church before he quitted. I had a baby for the pastor but the
baby died after some weeks."
On marrying her daughter
to the Pastor, she said,
"It is not true that I gave out our
daughter in marriage to the pastor without the consent from my husband, he was
aware of everything."
The pastor was absent
from the court as he was said to be on admission at an hospital in Enugu and
the presiding magistrate, Mrs R.I. Oruruo, adjourned hearing in the matter
to September 26.
