EVIL! Pastor, accomplice cut woman’s head, bury her inside church in Ogun
A pastor of Holy Gathering Evangelical Church of God, Elijah Oluwatobiloba, has been arrested by the Ogun State Police Command for allegedly killing his lover.
Not only did the pastor kill the woman, he went ahead to cut her head and then buried her body inside his church.
Pastor Elijah was arrested after one Adebola Saheed reported to the police that his younger sister, 35-year-old Mrs Raliat Sanni, had left home since March 21 and had yet to return.
Police found out that Elijah was the last to be seen with Raliat.
“The so called Pastor was promptly arrested and thoroughly interrogated,” police commissioner in the state, Ahmed Ilyasu, said.
“In the course of interrogation, the pastor confessed to killing the victim and burying her inside his church after removing her head and two hands for reasons only known to him and God.”
Elijah, according to Ilyasu, named another man, Daniel Sopeju, as his accomplice.
“This is the height of wickedness that can be meted out to a fellow human being. It will interest you to know that the victim was a secret lover to the pastor who eventually hacked her to death,” he said.
“I appeal to the people to always be watchful of those they associate with and always disclose their movements to at least one person close to them no matter how confidential the movement in order to prevent occurrence of this type of dastardly act,” he added.
Elijah, who also claimed to be a teacher at Methodist High School, Arigbajo, told newsmen that Sopeju killed Raliat during initiation into a cult group.
He said he was not the one that killed the victim, alleging that it was Sopeju who carried out the act and later cut off her head and two hands.
Sopeju, however, denied ever having any such deal with the pastor, claiming he last saw him in 2017.
