Parading the suspects at the Police Command Headquarters in Calabar, the spokesperson of the Command, ASP Irene Ugbo, said that the suspect was arrested alongside six others based on intelligence reports made avilable to the police.

The Police PRO said that the suspects were nabbed when the parents of a baby raised alarm that their child had been abducted by some masked men who stormed their house in the night.

“Some Policemen were immediately deployed to search the Church and its surroundings. They found some incriminating items and arrested the Pastor and six others”,  the Police spokesperson said.

It was during the interrogation, that Obo- Ekpenyong admitted his heinous crime, and went ahead to  confess to the numerous crimes he has been committing, hiding under the pretence of  a Pastor.
