A Nigerian man has reportedly been imprisoned after revealing that a popular pastor allegedly hires people to give fake testimonies in his church. The controversy surfaced after a woman attending the church falsely testified about buying a ₦500 million house through divine intervention.
The church, reportedly owned by Pastor Ebuka Obi, has faced growing scrutiny after a viral post on social media accused him of orchestrating staged miracles and testimonies. The post further alleged that the pastor used his influence to have a whistleblower jailed for exposing the practice, with claims that the man has remained in detention for a year without trial.
The revelation has sparked widespread reactions on social media, with many Nigerians calling for an investigation. While some defended the pastor, others demanded justice for the jailed individual. As the debate continues, authorities are yet to respond to the allegations.
