The church is located at Mafoluku Road in Oshodi area of Lagos and was founded by a prophet who hails from Delta State.
The man and blood his sister resided in the prophet’s house before she relocated to Ejigbo with their children.
It was gathered that Daniel had come to Lagos from their home state, Akwa Ibom, started attending the church and was given an accommodation by the prophet. After a while, he told the prophet that he wanted to travel to his village to get married and the church supported him.
He went, brought his blood sister, introduced her as his wife and received the blessing of the church.
Thereafter, they moved to the house allocated to them by the prophet in Ogun State due to accommodation problem; there the wife became pregnant and had the kids.
However, recently Daniel was found dead and his private part removed with other parts of his body missing. The death was reported to the police who had commenced investigation into the matter and his wife was brought to Ejigbo stay with the pastor’s family while the church was making arrangements to take the corpse to bury in their home town.
It was at the pastor’s house that the wife confessed that Daniel was actually her blood brother but they came to Lagos, started living as husband and wife and had children. She was also said to be pregnant for Daniel before he was murdered. The church members were shocked over the revelation and were said to be in dilemma about what to do.
