Robbers raid church in Ogun, kill pastor for eavesdropping on their conversation!!! (Pictured)

Punch reported that a 60-year-old pastor, Mr.Joseph Adebo has been killed by bandits who unleashed terror on residents of Oke Ela area in IIaro, Ogun State. The pastor who was in charge of Pentecostal church situated at Powerline, Oke Ela in IIaro was said to have been shot in the chest and left arm by the robbers.  

A resident of Oke Ela area who pleaded for anonymity said,

‘The robbers came in the early hours of the morning. No one really knew their number. They were moving around houses, and they did not even spare the church. No service was going in the church, but the pastor was around. I think he was the only person in the building.”

“He might have been shot because he argued with the robbers. Some neighbors believed he was eavesdropping on the robbers’ conversation, and wanted to raise the alarm. But when they found out, they got infuriated and one of them shot him, leading to instant death.”

Another resident said,

“When it was morning, we found him in a pool of blood right inside the church building. Everyone was shocked at the sight. After all the commotion, we reported the incident at the IIaro Police Station.”

The Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi who confirmed the death, said police are still working on a lead to get the robbers.
