Residents of Aponrin, Agbowo, Ibadan, the Oyo State capital have called the attention of the public to a Pastor, Owen Abraham, who organised a crusade but have allegedly fled the ground with more than 52 Androids and iPhones, cash and valuables on Tuesday.
Some of the said the pastor claimed to have received a message directly from God to travel from the Gambia to Ibadan to hold the powerful crusade.
On the final day of the five-day campaign, Abraham asserted that the Holy Spirit had told him to tell people to turn in their phones and valuables, but he afterward made off with them.
The victims claimed that on the final day of the crusade, Abraham, who allegedly tricked them into a three-day fast and prayer, was nowhere to be found and that all attempts to contact him had failed.
A victim, Mrs. Grace Akintola, said many widows went for the crusade because the Pastor promised to give each person a bag of rice and money, adding that Abraham also promised to grant students scholarships.
