"Look at our church at the second floor, nothing give the impression that there was any form of struggling, his bible, eye glasses and other things on the table appeared to indicate any form of violence.
"His dead body was seen this morning with his hand and leg tied behind him and some that look like a nylon was also used to tie his mouth. I suspect he must have been killed somewhere before he was dumped inside the gutter in front of his church.
"I am sure he did not come to the church in his boxers only, so the question is who removed his cloths and where did they drop the cloths. God will surely punish whoever that is responsible for the brutal murder of an anointed man of God."
A security operative who will not want his name in print said he worked night duty on Thursday but that there was noise from the building where the church of deceased is located.
The policemen from Central Police Station(CPS) Nnewi led by the Divisional Police Officer(DPO) Mr Ikechukwu Egbochukwu (SP) had an Herculean task dispersing the mammoth crowd that gather to behold the lifeless body of the slain pastor before he was taken to an unknown hospital to be deposited in mortuary.
