Clerics arrested for defrauding and sexually arresting some of their worshippers

Two clerics have been nabbed by officials of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC)  for allegedly defrauding and sexually abusing innocent worshipers in their respective churches. The suspects – Dada Babaroti and Clement Olatunde Fabeku – were arrested in Ondo State.

According to reports, both men extorted the unsuspecting worshipers by using diabolical and fetish means.

 Fabeku owns the Truth and Life Bible Church located in Ilorin, Kwara State capital, while Babaroti is the General Overseer of the Blood of Jesus Christ, in Idanre area of Ondo State.

Ondo state's NSCDC Commandant, Pedro Awili Idebo, confirming the arrest said;

 “They also obtained various sums of money running into millions of naira from members of their congregations under the false pretences. “Section 3 (1) G expressly empowers the Corps to monitor the activities of religious bodies and trade associations. “We use this opportunity to warn the fake clergymen and women to urgently relocate from the state or face the law of the land.” Idebo, however, said that the command had begun a clampdown on fraudsters in the state and would team up with other sister agencies to rid the state of criminals.
