Pastor Elijah, the General Overseer of a new-generation church in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, has been arrested by the Rivers State Police Command over allegations of homosexuality. The arrest followed the emergence of a leaked video purportedly showing the cleric in a compromising situation.
According to reports, Pastor Elijah's troubles began when a male acquaintance, to whom he allegedly made advances, secretly recorded their interaction and subsequently released the footage. Acting on credible intelligence, officers from the Octopus Strike Force tracked and apprehended the pastor at one of his regular hangouts.
During interrogation, Pastor Elijah reportedly confessed to engaging in similar activities with both adults and minors within and outside Port Harcourt. The spokesperson for the Rivers State Police Command, Superintendent Grace Iringe-Koko, confirmed the arrest and stated that the suspect has already been charged to court.
This incident has sparked discussions within the community, highlighting concerns about privacy, consent, and the legal implications surrounding such cases.
