A 45-year-old Nwebonyi Nwuguru who hailed from Edukwu Inyima town was
said to have given the land to the General Overseer of Divine Salvation
Ministry, Pastor Amos Odorimo, 45, for the purpose of building a church
auditorium.
As Sunday Sun learnt, the man’s wife, Roseline, 41, began to attend the
church. Nwuguru didn’t initially raise eyebrows over the long hours his wife
spent at the church. Somewhere along the line, the pastor opened the door wide
for the devil and of course went beyond his pastoral brief. He began to
minister to the woman’s body rather than her soul.
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 spoke with Sunday
Sun.
“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. When Nwuguru got wind
of the strong and deep romantic relationship between his wife and Odorimo, the
fake pastor, he naturally screamed blue murder. With their love affair known to
Nwuguru, Odorimo and Roseline were deeply rattled, but refused entreaties to
end the relationship. Rather, they allegedly connived to solve the problem
permanently, and invited the devil to be their chief adviser.
Act 2, Scene 2: 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.
Asked what happened thereafter, Odorimo gave this blood chilling
response: “I took the deceased’s cutlass and cut his head. His wife also hit
him on the head with a big stick. We ran away to Benue State, but men of the
local vigilance group arrested us and handed us over to the police.”
Roseline Nwuguru, who hails from Ado Local Government Area of Benue
State 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.”
After speaking with Sunday Sun, the two suspects, Pastor Odorimo and
Roseline Nwugwuru ate lunch together from the same plate as a way of showing
their love for each other.
Notwithstanding their show of deep affection for each other, Ebonyi
State Commissioner, Maigari Dikko has assured that the suspects would have
their day in court once the police conclude investigations.
