Abuja Pastor, Ministers Scale Fence To Evade Arrest Over Flouting Of Lockdown Law

By Our Reporter

What looks like a Nollywood movie took place in Abuja yesterday when the pastor in charge of Shekinah Glory Church, Jabi, Abuja, alongside church ministers and members took to their heels and scaled the fence of the church to evade arrest by the FCT Enforcement Team.

According to the chairman of the FCT Enforcement Team Mr Ikharo Attah, his team stormed the area following an intelligence report that the church was in full session, a clear contravention of the ban on religious gatherings in the territory.FCT
“On sighting thee team, the pastor and deacons jumped the fence and ran away but luck ran out of some of the church members, especially the women, who could not scale the fence as they were arrested and arraigned before the court”.

Attah added that the team has commenced manhunt for the fleeing cleric and the deacons, adding that they must be made to face the law for disobeying government’s directives and endangering the lives of his members.
