“He Started Sleeping With Me Few Days After I Arrived In His House For Special Deliverance- Precious

According to the Nigerian Tribune, Ezani, an evangelist and the General Overseer of a Pentecostal church, has been arrested by police for allegedly impregnating a 16-year-old girl who had visited him for prayers and healing at his home in Nnewi, Anambra State.

The teenager, identified as Precious, reportedly went to his residence in the Amichi community of Nnewi South Local Government Area seeking spiritual guidance.

The suspect, who claims to lead a local Pentecostal church, was taken into custody by the Special Anti-Touting Squad (SASA), a state government security agency.

In a viral video shared on social media, Ezani admitted to the crime and revealed that he had combined bitter leaf with other herbs in an effort to end the girl’s pregnancy and avoid shame.

He requested leniency from the authorities, offering to pay for the girl’s medical costs if he is freed.

Karen James, a spokesperson for the security agency, told reporters on Friday at the SASA headquarters in Onitsha that a security officer from the nearby Igboukwu community reported the case, explaining that the victim had been placed in the suspect’s care by her aunt for special deliverance prior to the incident.

She stated that the aunt discovered the victim was pregnant, and upon being asked, the victim disclosed the evangelist’s name, who is now in police custody.

Recounting her ordeal, the victim said the abuse began in November 2025, when the suspect had sexual intercourse with her soon after she arrived at his home for the special deliverance her aunt had requested.

She added that the suspect impregnated her and threatened to kill her if she revealed the misconduct.

Precious said: “Daddy Ezani started having forceful sex with me a few days after I arrived in his house for the special deliverance.
