Armed task force operatives have assaulted a popular Prophet, Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere nicknamed Odumeje (the liquid metal) as his church was demolished by the Anambra State Government.
The destruction of the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry, a church owned by Odumeje caused a state of unrest after the demolition began on Thursday, July 7, 2022.
The ministry located at no 88B Bida Road, Fegge, Onitsha, was marked by the Anambra State government for demolition in April.
The church building is reportedly sitting on a huge canal and obstructing waterways, prompting the government to order its removal as an illegal building in line with Soludo’s plan to demolish over 200 buildings in Onitsha blocking the drainage linking the River Niger.
In a video that has since gone viral, Odumeje is seen pleading with security person but was in turn assaulted and bundled out in a bid to prevent him from gaining entrance into the church building.
