I was going to an event last weekend and I alighted
from the bus at obasanjo bustop of sango otta. this
bus stop/junction has a general hospital at the right
hand side and a police station at the left hand side. its
a popular place that people around otta/idiroko road
should know.
when I got to this junction, I was surprised to see an
evangelist/ preacher standing at this junction with a
megaphone in his hand preaching the gospel. I don't
really have any problem with him preaching the gospel,
but I was shocked that his gospel was more of
confessions, he was saying how he used to be a
notorious criminal, how he robbed people at gun point,
how he raped a lot of young ladies and how he used to
be a cultist before he got born again and turned a new
leaf. I was surprised that there was a police patrol at
the junction controlling vehicles and also a police
station right beside this preacher. I left the spot, went
for the wedding and returned 3 hours later and I was
shocked to see this same man preaching without been
arrested to interrogate his past actions been confessed
by him publicly. so I wanted to ask this questions
1. is there immunity for any pastor who was once a
criminal?.
2. is there a law saying past criminal turn pastors
shouldn't be investigated or arranged for trial?
Over to you guys what is your own view?
