Ogun Pastor Allegedly Struck Dumb While Destroying Traditional Shrine Narrates Shocking Story

After he was allegedly struck dumb and motionless by ‘spirits’as he attempted to destroy charms and a shrine in Ogun State, Pastor Fagbire finally speaks on the incident.

A pastor of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) in Ayetoro, Ogun state, Prince Adewale Fagbire, who was alleged struck dumb and motionless after attacking a shrine at Ketu-Ayetoro in Yewa North Local Government has revealed what happened to him.

 

Fagbire had allegedly entered the shrine and was about evacuating its fetish items before he was allegedly struck dumb and motionless beside the entrance to the shrine.

 

According to The Nation, Fagbire, the son of the late Alaye of Ayetoro, Oba Taiwo Fagbire, who died in 1981, said his late father used to take him to the shrine when he was alive.

 

Narrating his experience at the Office of the  Chairman, Ogun State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Bishop Tunde Akin-Akinsanya, in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, Fagbire said he elected to “remain calm and mute” during the assault and interrogation at the shrine by traditionalists and villagers.

 

The pastor, who spoke in the presence of Christian leaders from the state CAN and Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), said God instructed him to stay calm and not utter a word at the shrine.

 

The father of two noted that this had nothing to with his assault with “charms and fetish objects”, as what they did had no physical or spiritual effects on him.

 

According to him, it was also not true as reported that the priests and custodians of the shrine upon the intervention of the Alaye of Ayetoro,  Oba Abdulaziz Adelakun,  treated or healed him before he  became conscious.

 

“About what happened at Ayetoro, it was from God and direction from Holy Spirit for the deliverance of Ayetoro from darkness.

“God told me I should go to the shrine to bring out those things for the liberation of Ayetoro. When I started what God told me, he told me to do three things in the shrine . That is, I should evacuate the items,  step aside and watch the film. I should not say anything when people come out to see me. So, I did as instructed by God on September 20 .

“When I was taken to the palace, I  told them all my actions were directed by God. Although they beat me with charms, none was effective on me. I am healthy and sound.  When we got to the palace, I expressed my mind about it; nobody treated me.”

 

It was gathered that traditionalists demanded N300,000 from Prince Wale family and N200,000 from a church in the community, where Fagbire had once preached, for sacrifices to appease the gods for his alleged sacrilege. It was reportedly gathered that he didn’t pay the money.
