It was an embarrassing moment for the
Chairman of all Bishops in Rivers State, Bishop
Chibuike Nwabueze,who was paraded by the
state Police Command for raping a 15-year old
girl who went to him for prayers.
DailyPost gathered that the incident occurred
at about 2pm on April 29, at Calvary Army
Ministry in Rumuoji Eneka, in Obio/Akpor Local
Government Area of the state.
The Bishop, who confessed to the
crime before newsmen, said he was
hypnotised, adding that he was set up by the
pastor of the church where the incident
occurred.
He denied raping the under aged girl, but
admitted that she removed her clothes after he
finished praying for her in the office and
before he could shout ‘the blood of Jesus,’ he
was already all over the girl.
The Bishop said he was set up by his fellow
bishop who was also contesting for the post of
the Chairmanship of All Bishops in the state
with him.
Nwabueze, who was paraded at the Rivers State
Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, Port
Harcourt, said anybody could have become a
victim considering the circumstance. He
described as untrue, the allegation that he
made the girl abort a pregnancy that resulted
from the incident.
According to him, it was the girl’s father who
carried out the abortion. However, he
admitted taking care of the bill.
In his words, “We have different Colleges of
Bishops, I am the Chairman of Communion of
Bishops in Rivers State.
Well, what actually happened was a set up. It
was set-up by my enemies. The man who is in-
charge of where I went to minister is my
enemy. He is the person that set me up.
“He invited me to his church
for a programme and after
the programme, he set me
up because we are dragging the chairmanship
of the communion and that was why he set me
up.
“But to my greatest surprise, on the said day
and after I had prayed for her, the girl started
pulling off her clothes and before you know it,
I had carnal knowledge of her. That is the
truth of the matter.
“She laughed at me and said ‘are you angry? I
told her that I did not know what she had
hypnotised me for and she said I should not
bother. I was so angry
that I called some of my pastors and confessed
that I did not know what happened.”
According to him, it was after a month that
the victim’s father called him on the phone,
saying that his daughter was pregnant.
Though, the cleric admitted funding the
victim’s laboratory test and other hospital bills,
he stressed that it was the girl’s father that
insisted on abortion, adding that he took her
to a clinic, where it was confirmed that the
victim had aborted the child.
Meanwhile, the police have advised parents to
carefully choose where their children worship
and be wary of some clergies.
The Deputy Commissioner of Police in-charge
of SCID, Samuel Okaula, who paraded the
bishop and a male nurse, said the arrest of
Bishop Nwabueze
should serve as deterrent to other so-called
clerics.
