A magistrate court has ordered that
Pastor Philip Ogbebor –
Founder and General Overseer of a Pentecostal Church in Benin City, be remanded at the Federal Medium Security Prison, Oko for
allegedly having carnal knowledge of a 20-year-old
male member of his church; and, administering secret oaths on him, including;
threatening to kill him if he told anyone.
Shockingly, the lustful pastor of Breakthrough Ministries, Owina Street,
off Sakponba road Benin city, neither denied the allegation of
homosexuality levelled against him by the parents of one of his victims
nor blamed the devil as many culprits will do.
Instead, he told reporters that he only encountered temptation and he will now face Divine Justice.
“I am only passing through temptation. I only did it four
times with the man who is 22 years old and a regular member of my
church. I can’t claim that it was the devil’s influence , let God
decide my case.” He said.
Pastor Phillip Ogbebor is now an unusual inmate at the prisons. He faces a 14-year jail term, if found guilty by the court.
