Department of the Lagos State Police
Command has arrested a man known
as Pastor Chibuzor Nnaegbo for fraud.
Speaking after his arrest, Pastor
Chibuzor confessed that his victims
believed he was in Israel trying to
open a church so they donated
millions of Naira to his ministry.
He however said he gave out most
of the money he collected to other
churches, including Pastor EA
Adeboye’s Redeemed Christian
Church of God (RCCG) and Bishop
David Oyedepo’s Winners Chapel,
as ‘seed’.
“My problem started while I was
pastoring a church in Onitsha; I
read a book written by Bishop
Oyedepo on how to sow seed. After
reading the book I sold all the
church properties and sowed the
proceeds in another church.
“When I relocated to Lagos, I
started collecting money from
people, deceiving them that I am in
Israel. I told them that I had issues
trying to set up a church and
needed money to grow the
ministry.
“I used all the money I collected
from them to sow seed in
Redemption camp. I collected N1.9
million from one of the victims,
N1.255 million from another, N2.5
million from the third and
N900,000 and a Toyota Camry from
the fourth victim. I sowed the
Camry as seed in Winners Chapel
in Otta.
“I was arrested through my
younger brother who I sent to
collect money from one of the
victims, unknown to me that he had
discovered that he was being
defrauded and had reported to
Ilemba Divisional Police, and they
arrested me.
“Concerning the porn videos that
were found in my phone, I watch
the pornography videos on my
phone whenever I have sexual urge
because I don’t have sexual
intercourse with women,” he said.
