A popular Lagos-based pastor is currently cooling off
in jail for allegedly impregnating a minor.
The suspect identified as Solomon Eze was sent to
prison for indecent assault on an 11-year-old girl at
his church located in Iju Ishaga area of Lagos.
32-year-old Pastor Eze, a native of Eka in Delta State
was alleged to have lured the mother of the victim
away from her house and ordered her to move into
his church to avoid the arrow of death.
The victim's mother moved into Eze's church
(Hepzibah Assembly of all National Intl) located at 2
Arogbo Lane off Odunbaku street in Iju Ishaga.
Few weeks later, the woman started noticing strange
things in her daughter. It started when she
complained of stomach ache and showed signs of
malaria.
She later contacted a nurse who treated the girl for
malaria but the sickness persisted until she was told
to have a scan when it was discovered that she was
pregnant.
When the mother asked her daughter who was
responsible, she said it was Pastor Eze. It was
discovered that the girl was two months pregnant
and when pressed further, she revealed that Pastor
Eze gave her holy water to drink and also gave her a
red substance to rub on her face.
She added that she became unconscious only for her
to see Eze on top of her. When she wanted to scream,
she said he used his hand to cover her mouth before
having sex with her, and told her she will die if she
tells anyone.
The case was promptly reported to police at Iju
Ishaga station and Eze was immediately arrested.
Police prosecutor said it happened back in August.
Pastor Eze was arraigned today at a Magistrates
Court in Abule Egba.
He pleaded not guilty and the presiding magistrate,
Mr. T.A. Elias, ordered him to be remanded in prison
custody pending the advice from the Directorate of
Public Prosecution.
The case has been adjourned till January 2015 for
further hearing.
