Lagos: evangelist impregnates 15-year-old chorister, claims he was ‘sex starved’ by fiancee
A church evangelist, Nchedo has impregnated a 15-year old church chorister to the shock of his congregants.
The evangelist was said to be a relationship with another lady who vowed after their introduction never to have sex until they conclude all the traditional marriage rites and church wedding.
The incident happened at Abaranje, Customs bus stop in Ikotun area of Lagos where Nchedo resided and where he lured the victim. But his betrothed Ogoo was still living in Ijegun area of Lagos waiting to move into her husband’s home.
According to reports, the couple used to attend the same church located in Agege area of Lagos where they met. They had agreed to get married with the consent of their pastor and had travelled down to their hometown Ihiala in Anambra State for introduction and certain rites. They came back to Lagos thereafter but still remained apart as they had vowed.
However, Nchedo had challenges in his business and they were unable to conclude the other part of the marriage including the wedding. It was gathered that the wife had sought to renounce the vow so that she will move into her husband’s home but the man refused claiming that it will be a scandal in the church.
According to an eyewitness, when Nchedo was mentioned as the one who got the chorister pregnant, it became a problem because of his position in the church. The pastor then summoned the elders to a meeting in order to manage the crisis. At the meeting, Nchedo admitted and promised to marry chorister to cover the shame.
The elders asked him what will be the fate of his wife and he replied that he may as well marry the two of them in the interest of peace. However, Nchedo lost both the wife and the girl following the decision was taken by the wife and the girl’s parents.
It was gathered that the wife opted out of the marriage and asked him to move on and marry the girl he had already impregnated. The parents of the victim rejected the marriage offer claiming that it will ruin the victim’s education and the victim cannot afford to be a mother at that age.
