Pastor Noah Abraham of Christ High Commission Ministry collecting N310,000 from members of his church to have access to heaven after rapture in Omuo-Ekiti, in Ekiti East Local Government Area of the state has been arraigned by Ekiti State Police Command.
Sources said that the pastor relocated to Ekiti from Kaduna, where he was based in 2021.
The pastor later returned to Kaduna in April to ask each member of his church to pay N310,000 before they would be allowed to follow him to Omuo-Ekiti, where the gate of heaven will open for all of them to fly to heaven.
The pastor also assured the members that they would all ascend to heaven together from the location in Ekiti.
Ekiti State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP Sunday Abutu said:
“This has become necessary to avoid misinformation, unnecessary apprehension and to inform members of the public that the command is not unaware of the trending controversial activity, as necessary steps and actions have been taken.”
“Based on intelligence report received by the command on April 25, concerning the religious activity, the Area Commander, OmuoOke led a team of detectives to the church camp located at Araromi Ugbeshi-Ekiti.”
“The pastor was subsequently invited to the station for interrogation. Meanwhile, Pastor Noah Ade Abraham, after a thorough investigation, was arraigned accordingly.”
“The command pledges to closely monitor suspicious activities by any person or group of persons across the state in order to ensure that the life and properties of innocent citizens are totally protected.”
