Anambra Government Demolishes Influential Nigerian Pastor Odumeje’s Church

A case of one being caught off guard is the experience Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere had on Thursday afternoon, July 7. Leadership reports that the Anambra State government demolished the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry owned by Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, popularly known as ‘Odumeje’ in the commercial city of Onitsha.

In fact, there have been a series of videos making rounds on the internet of how the prominent cleric is roughly handled by the Armed Taskforce officials.

This was in line with the Onitsha Urban Renewal Plan spearheaded by Governor Charles Soludo.

The structure was said to be erected along the Nwagene stream and had to be removed for the actualisation of the Onitsha Urban Renewal Plan.

Nigerians react

Nigerians took to their Facebook pages and reacted to the development. For some, he should have shown off his might as the ‘Lion’ while others faulted the move by Anambra state government officials.

Ogbuefi Ikeanyi Anthony questioned:

“Why did he go there in the first place to create a scene? He already knew they must demolish the place, he should have removed all his properties by today, he should have avoided that embarrassment…”

Tomorrow, this same uniformed men will complain when there are not being paid their entitlements and want sympathy from the populace. “Overzealousness and zealotry for wrong things is not meticulousness.” 

Debbs Imumolen lamented :

“Its really unfair ,after demolishing his church ,you still maltreat him “Kaii.”
