<p>Pastor Igboke reportedly killed himself after his lover of many years allegedly turned down his marriage proposal.</p>
<p>An eyewitness, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the man had sponsored his lover’s university education with the hope to marry her after graduation but she declined his marriage proposal. He jumped down from a two storey-building after suffering depression.</p>
<p>“The man was 30 years old at the time of his death.</p>
<p>According to the tradition of Leru autonomous community of Umunneochi Local Government in Abia State, where the pastor hailed from, he would be buried in “an evil forest” for committing sacrilege.</p>
<p>“The man was eventually buried on Friday, in one of the bush in the town,” the eyewitnesses added.</p>
<p>When contacted, the Anambra State Police Command spokesman, DSP Ikenga Tochuchwu, said he had no such information, but promised to reach out to the Divisional Police Officer, Nnewi.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A pastor has been arrested by the Rivers State Police Command on the suspicion of defiling and impregnating a minor in the state.</strong></p>
<p>The incident which took place in Ndele community of Emohua Local Government Area of the oil rich state involves a 45 year old pastor, Piler Erekwa, of a new generation church called Gracious Covenant Church.</p>
<p>Erekwa was the subject of a complaint by one Amesi ThankGod who is an in-law to the teenager.</p>
<p>According to Mr. ThankGod, both the teenager and her mother were members of of the pastor’s church, and the young girl is known to regularly frequent the church especially when her mother is not at home.</p>
<p>“If her mother goes to the farm, the girl normally goes to the church to relax and returns in the evening.</p>
<p>“Then in the last few days, the girl started vomiting. My wife who is her elder sister took her for a medical examination. The result shows she is pregnant”.</p>
<p>Mr. ThankGod also claimed that Pastor Erekwa has threatened the young girl’s life for exposing him.</p>
<p>Speaking further, he said his wife took her to confront the pastor who reluctantly affirmed being the one responsible for her pregnancy, but pleaded with the girl to get rid of the pregnancy.</p>
<p>“He said they should give her some drugs to flush the pregnancy so that the girl will be free, but if we allow that, she may die and we have ourselves to blame”. He said.</p>
<p>The matter was reported to the Emohua Vigilante Society (EMOVIS) who picked up pastor Pillar and handed him over to the Rumuji Police Division.</p>
<p>When contacted, the state’s Police Public Relations Officer Grace Iringe-Koko confirmed the incident saying “Yes we are aware of the incident. The suspect is in our custody and investigations are still ongoing” she said.</p>

<p>Moodley&#8217;s wife allegedly refused to bury him believing that he will rise from the dead.</p>
<p>When he died, the church met daily praying for his resurrection. Then his family and members of the church would visit the morgue to pray for his resurrection. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, and months into years and the pastor could not resurrect in the morgue.</p>
<p>It was reported that the funeral home manager, Martin du Toit, lodged an application with the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court to grant him permission to have Moodley buried or cremated.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A pastor in Mozambique, Francisco Barajah, has died after attempting to fast for 40 days like Jesus was said to have done after his baptism, according to a report shared on Thursday.</strong></p>
<p>Barajah, who founded the Santa Trindade Evangelical Church in the central province of Manica, was unable to stand, bathe or walk by the end of his fast, Noticias Online reports.</p>
<p>He passed away at the hospital in the city of Beira on Wednesday. Relatives and friends became concerned about Barajah’s health as he visibly deteriorated, ultimately deciding to intervene in his fatal act of faith.</p>
<p>A local report of Barajah’s attempt to recreate the fast said he was foregoing water as well as food.</p>
<p>The pastor, who also worked as a French school teacher, was said to have developed “severe anaemia,” had internal organ damage and was unable to digest food.</p>
<p>It adds that one of Barajah’s neighbours said the clergyman had become sick on the 25th day of his fast, but that his health became much worse on the 38th day.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Medics reportedly attempted to rehydrate and nourish Barajah with liquid foods, but to no avail. His followers were said to be unsurprised by the news of his death after seeing his extreme weight loss.</p>
