The Presiding Pastor of Deliverance Home of Comfort Assembly in Ihiagwa, Owerri, Imo State, Benjamin Ndieze, is presently in police net over his alleged involvement in a stage-managed kidnap incident.
The Imo State Commissioner of Police, Chris Ezike, while briefing journalists on Sunday, said Ndieze had arranged with Blessing Ahamefula of Ngwa Road, Aba, Abia State to come to his church with her little girl, Faith Ahamefula, who is just five-year-old.
Ndieze received and handed over the child to his church member, Emmanuel Onuoha.
He further ordered Onuoha to drop the girl at NNPC Filling Station at Control Post, Owerri.
The arrangement was to convey the impression that Faith had been kidnapped in order to fulfill the prophecy of Ndieze.
It was gathered that during a church service, Ndieze prophesied that there was a woman in the congregation who was looking for her daughter.
He said that Faith was kidnapped from Aba by her uncle, identified as Emeka.
Ndieze said the baby had been taken to Onitsha preparatory to being taken to Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
He claimed that through his powers and prayers, the kidnappers and ritual killers would drop and abandon Faith at NNPC Control Post, Owerri.
Ndieze called on his members, who desired to witness the power of God in operation to go to NNPC Control Post, Owerri in order to witness the demonstration of his power and the miraculous rescue of Faith.
