The police have arrested a minister with the Mountain of Fire Ministry, Oshodi District, Lagos Pastor Franklin Chinedu for allegedly defrauding a widow, Charity Onje Isaac who was paid her late husband’s gratuity.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that the victim, Charity was deceived through a false prophecy and lost the N850,000 she was paid by her late husband’s employer, Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria, FAAN.
The incident happened at Biliaminu Close, Oke-Afa area of Isolo where the victim allegedly surrendered the money as requested by Chinedu.
It was gathered from the victim that Chinedu prophesied to and asked her to give him the money as he was divinely directed by God.
The Benue State-born widow obediently gave him the money but later realised that she had been duped.
However, she went back to the pastor’s house only to discover that he had moved out from the apartment to another rented three bedroom flat.
Narrating how the whole scam happened, the widow disclosed that she met Chinedu who told her about the death of her husband and the gratuity.

Charity said she did not know what came over her as she handed the money to him.
