The General Overseer of Divine Salvation Ministry, Pastor Amos
Odorimo, 45, has been arrested for conniving with one of his female
church members, Roseline to kill her husband.
At the headquarters of the State Criminal Investigation Department of
the Ebonyi State Police Command where he and Roseline are being held as
investigation into the alleged murder continues, Odorimo stated told
Sun newspaper thus:
“I am married and have five children. The deceased Nwebonyi Nwugwu
was nice to me. He gave me a hectare of land to build my church. His
wife, Roseline Nwuguru attended my church. It was from there that I
started having love affair with her. When the love was getting deep we
found out that the deceased was disturbing us and we have to plan for
him,” Odorimo said.
On September 30, 2014, unsuspecting Nwuguru decided to visit his
farm. Promptly, Odorimo offered to give him a ride on his motorcycle.
Along the way Odorimo stopped and dismounted from the motorcycle.
“I took deceased’s cutlass and cut him on the head. His wife also hit
him on the head with a big stick. He died on the spot and we ran away
to Benue State, but men of the local vigilance group arrested us and
handed us over to the police.” the pastor stated.
Roseline Nwuguru, while corroborating the account of Odorimo said: “I
have seven children for my late husband. He stopped people from
entering the church because he had misunderstanding with Pastor Odorimo.
Actually I was having a love affair with Pastor Odorimo. I don’t regret
my action and joining in killing my husband. He was a wicked man,
because he prevented people from entering the church.”
