Lagos Pastor In Trouble Over Prophecy

The General Overseer of Faith Alive Christian Centre, Lagos,
Pastor Obi Ofoedu, may have bitten more than he could chew
as one of his church members, Mrs. Favour Okafor, recently
informed the police that the prophet threatened to strike her
with stroke because she refused to accept his 'calamity'
prophecy.

According to Encomium, trouble started when the man of God
prophesied during a church service that Mrs. Okafor would
face trouble in her place of work, which can only be averted if
the woman comes for special prayers.

Reacting to the prophecy, the woman categorically stated that
nothing bad would happen to her.

Angered by her affront, Pastor Ofoedu allegedly told Mrs.
Okafor that she would be hit with stroke.

After the alleged threat, the woman reported the matter at
Area 'M' Police Command in Idimu and the man of God was
subsequently apprehended.

However, he denied the allegation and pleaded not guilty to
the charges brought before him in court. The presiding
magistrate, Mr. Nwaka, granted him bail in the sum of
N50,000 with two sureties in like sum. He was remanded in
prison for few days and released on bail.
