The police in Rivers state have expressed concern over the activities of unscrupulous persons who parade themselves as clergymen. The commissioner of police in River state, Tunde Ogunsakin, also advised that members of the public should be wary of such “God’s men”.

The police boss gave this warning following the arrest of three pastors for alleged fraud. “These fraudsters, masquerading themselves as prophets, are on the loose and prey on the gullible members of the public through the use of false prophesy and divine pronouncements,” Ogunsakin said.

The suspects, according to the police boss, were exposed following reports by one Mr. Umejiego ,a Director of a private organisation who was lured into a false scheme through his wife by the operator of a Church named “Favour Anointing Ministry". The church, at number 7A Ojoto Lane Mile 3, Diobu, Port Harcourt is allegedly operated by one Prophet Victory Ibe.  “Ibe confessed to be a perpetual dupe and that he has always had in his possession a pro-forma change of ownership which he used to make people part with their properties,” he said.

The police alleged that Mr. Ibe tricked Mr. Umejiogo to part with his Toyota Land Cruiser Jeep to “sow as seed” into Mr. Ibe’s life. “He (Ibe) thereafter produced a change of ownership which he promptly got signed by the unsuspecting victim who immediately handed over the original documents to him(Ibe) together with the vehicle ” Mr. Ogunsakin said.

Luck however ran out on Mr. Ibe when the vehicle was involved in an accident.
