“Upon the report, the DPO Ajuwon Division, SP Andrew Akinseye detailed his detectives to effect the arrest of the randy prophet.
“On interrogation, the prophet admitted that he actually committed the crime.
“In the course of investigation, it was discovered that the said prophet did not only had carnal knowledge of the 16 years old girl, but her 13 years old younger sister too was defiled by the same prophet.
“The two victims informed the police that whenever they had vigil in the church, the prophet who lives very close to the church will asked them to go and stay in his house after the vigil which ends around 3am.
“They stated further that anytime they stay in the prophet’s house, he gives them something to lick, and after licking it, they will sleep off only to wake up and discovered that the prophet has had sex with them.
