A magistrates’ court in Kafanchan, Kaduna State, has ordered the remand of a self-acclaimed prophet, Enoch Sule, in a correctional facility for raping and getting two sisters pregnant.
Sule, who is the General Overseer of Prayer Tabernacle Ministry, Kamurum Bajju, was charged by the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) with rape.
The Magistrate, Samson Kwasu, who did not take the plea of the accused, directed the prosecutor to forward the case file to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) and adjourned to September 8.
Earlier, the NSCDC prosecutor, Marcus Audu, told the court that the matter was reported to the corps by the Salama Sexual Assault Referral Centre, Kafanchan, on August 8.
Audu told the court that Sule deceived the older sister (19) into accompanying him to a mountain for prayers and fasting.
He said while on the mountain, the Sule instructed the woman to remove her clothes and pray naked as directed by the Holy Spirit.
He further said Sule thereafter forcefully had sexual intercourse with the girl, which resulted in a pregnancy.
He added that a month later, in April, Sule repeated the same trick on his victim’s 17-year-old sister and also got her pregnant. (NAN)
