Photos: Angry youths in Delta destroy property in a church owned by a pastor accused of sleeping with married women

Angry youths in Jesse community near Sapele in Delta state yesterday destroyed the property in the Mountain Of Prayers Ministry, a church  located along the Jesse Sapele road after alleging that the pastor of the church simply identified as Bishop Emma, was sleeping with married women in the community.


According to Facebook user, Comr Blessing Akamugbe who shared the photos on Facebook, trouble started after it was discovered that the accused pastor committed adultery with the wife of a former member of his church, Chief Austine Omonode who is the President General of Idjerhe Clan Development Union (ICDU).

12 members of the church were injured during the chaos.

Some other residents in the community believe that the attack had a political undertone as the accused pastor is contesting for a political office and that his attack and accusation might have been staged by his political rivals.

The matter has been reported to the police who are carrying out their investigations.
