The wife of the Akure church pastor where a boy was kidnapped has cried out saying that the life of her husband who is in the custody of the State Security Service, self-styled as the Department of State Services, DSS is in danger.
During a recent interview with Triangle Media, Prophetess Bisola Alfa, the wife of the General Overseer of Sotitobire Miracle Centre Akure revealed her fear for the life of her husband, Prophet Babatunde Alfa whom she claimed has suffered serious health problems since his arrest
She maintained that contrary to the viral online reports, her husband was only invited for questioning and he did not hesitate to honor the invitation. She was quick to add that the self acclaimed prophet honoured the DSS invitation with his lawyer earlier than the expected date.
She said; “We expect the DSS to have either admit my husband to bail or charge him to court if at all there is any evidence. Some of the invited children teachers have also been detained by the DSS while the rest were released. It is even surprising that the DSS operatives came with my husband to search our house and church even without the knowledge of his lawyer that went with him to their office. Although, I am happy that only Bibles and international passports of church members were found by the DSS operatives”.
She contended that her husband could never have been involved in the abduction of the missing one-year-old boy. Expressing her shock she said:
”It baffles me that the mother of the missing boy claimed to have dropped him around 10:00am and the boy was said to have disappeared by 11:00 am with all the policemen that were on duty. I am aware that Prophet did not get to know about the boy’s disappearance until about 5:30 pm when Sunday service was concluded and he still chose to stay back in the church till the next day for prayers because of the matter.
“After the intense prayer by the Prophet, he told the boy’s father that the missing child is in his custody and surprisingly, the man never argued with my husband.
“Even the mother of the missing boy also alluded that there is the possibility that her husband may know about the boy’s disappearance. She also threatened to divorce the man due to his incessant troubles once the missing boy is found”.
She, however, expressed utter disappointment with the negative insinuations by people over the rapid growth of Sotitobire Miracle Center. “This is a church where we do not ask people to bring money. Prophet will only pray for people and some of them that received answers to their prayers would willingly return to appreciate God with their substance.
“But talk of when did Sotitobire start that he now has a large congregation is quite disappointing to say the least”, added Bisola Alfa.
