The popular office of Our Daily Manna (ODM), situated at
Ogudu area in Lagos was invaded by an armed robber last Friday June 13, 2014.
Eye witness disclosed that the robber stormed the church at about 1pm when the
place was empty, except for the presence of the staff that was around when they
came in. The robber was said to have pretended to be a repairer of bad chairs and
that they had come to repair the office chairs in the computer/admin rooms.
"The robbers came in to pretend as a furniture repairer
and came to ask if he could help repair some of the malfunctioning chairs and furniture
in the church office and the computer room, and we did not have any reason to
have doubted him and his pretence," an eye witness revealed.
Further investigation reliably gathered that as soon as he
came in to the office where he pretended to have come to make some repairs, he
ordered the ODM staff to evacuate the office since he was going to spray a very
dangerous chemical. The staffers agreed
immediately.
A couple of minutes later one of the administrative staff
decided to check what was going on in the office where this "chair
repairer" was working and he discovered that the man had already removed
the office laptop and was planning to remove the second one. He raised alarm
and the robber was intercepted. He was searched and a phone and adangerous
instrument was found on him.
After being arrested by the men of the Ogudu Police station,
and was asked who sent him and who was his boss, he claimed he came from far away
Ogun state but he kept lamenting that he was giving wrong information. In his words,
“I never knew it was a church/Christian office. I thought its an ordinary
office. If I had know it was church,
I won’t have agreed to come." Adding to his words, “ I
came all the way from Otta, (Agbado, Ijaiye) I don’t know this place is a
church office. THEY DID NOT TELL ME OOOO. I
wouldn’t have come here.”
He was immediately charged to Ogudu Magistrate court and the
judge presiding over the case, Mrs Awope, who was very angry, gave an order for
him to be remanded in Ikoyi Maximum prison, till July 14 when the matter will
be revisited.
Prior to this ugly incident, we gathered authoritatively
that the ODM publisher, Bishop Dr. Chris Kwapovwe had been faced with different
challenges and battles from his supposed "enemies." Remember that there
was also a robbery about a year ago and it was the same LAPTOP OFFICE that was
targeted. The general view is that it is the handiwork of people who are
planning to bring him down by all means following his unusual rise/success
story and the wave-making publication,
“Our Daily Manna.”
Also, irrespective of the many challenge that has been
brought to the happily married Bishop Dr Chris and Dr (Mrs.) Ejiro Kwakpovwe , nothing
have been able to shudder them and they have moved from strength to strength
both in the ministry and in their family life.
Meanwhile the Nigerian Police are not leaving any stone
unturned to trace the matter to its foundation.
