A 53-year-old supposed pastor has reportedly impregnated 20 members of his church in Enugu State.
He attributed the scandalous act to alleged instructions from the Holy Spirit.
The self-acclaimed clergy is said to have been arrested and now in the custody of the Enugu State Police Command.
The pastor, identified as Timothy Ngwu, is said to be the ‘General Overseer’ of Vineyard Ministry of the Holy Trinity in Enugu.
The police spokesperson, Ebere Amaraizu, revealed that the pastor has been charged to court for sex abuse.
“The pastor claims to be obeying spiritual orders to do the will of God, which is to impregnate any one chosen and revealed by the Holy Spirit, irrespective of whether the person is married or not.
“When the woman delivers, the child is supposed to remain in the ministry with the mother for life,” he added.
It was gathered that the pastor was reported to the police by his own wife who got tired of his behaviour after he also impregnated her young niece.
In his defense, the pastor said he never had sex with any of the married women unless their husbands agreed with the request of the Holy Spirit.
He disclosed that he has five wives with 13 children, including other mistresses.
