Chukwuma Soludo, Anambra State Governor has said that Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, the general overseer of The Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry will pay for the equipment used in pulling down his church.
The governor made known on Friday.
According to him, there were several notices sent to all house owners, whose houses were marked for demolition, and that they were all served notices, and asked to remove such structures.
He said, “The demolition started yesterday (Thursday), and so far so good. The demolition went well, except for Pastor Odumeje, who according to the report drove in, in a brazen manner and attempted to take over the equipment.
“Of course, state work must go on, and security had to stop him. This was a man who was in several meetings we had, and also spoke.
“In fact, this is costing us money, and the structures should have been removed before now, but they chose to test the resolve of the government.
“Once we are done with this exercise, we will compile the bills and send to the persons involved, and they must pay.”
