A 35-year-old man, Ikenna Agubosim, who claimed to be a pastor and the spiritualist of some criminals in Imo State, has been arrested by the state’s police command.

The suspect was paraded before newsmen, alongside a suspected armed robber, Uchechukwu Benjamin.

Speaking on the case, the State Commissioner of Police, Muhammed Katsina, said the Agubosim, the acclaimed man of God, was arrested as an accomplice in connection with a robbery crime.

Leadership reports:

Katsina said, “This man claimed to be a man of God, but he was arrested in an ambush by our squad in connection with a robbery crime. He confessed that he prays for them before they go on robbery operation. Such people are not fit to live in our society and that is why we are here for them.”

The suspect, when interrogated by LEADERSHIP, confessed to the crime. He also claimed to be a real spiritualist, who prays for those that can pay his price.

He said, “I do my own in a Judaism way. I pray for them and they give me money, but sometimes I also defraud them.”

Explaining how he was arrested, he said that a robber whom he prayed for led the police to him.
