police seal off Church ovee live burial of 2-year-old

Officers of the Nigeria Police have sealed
off the Christ Gospel Apostolic Church
located at Destiny Avenue in Egbeda area
of Lagos, where a two-year-old baby girl
was allegedly buried alive.
It was gathered that the police at Idimu
Division stormed the church and exhumed
the body of the victim for autopsy and
arrested the pastor of the church identified
as Dare Ogunloye.
A police source said the Divisional Police
Officer, Mike Ochuko, instructed his men to
exhume the corpse from the church
premises for autopsy.
To get to the root of the matter, the
traditional ruler of Egbeda kingdom, Oba
Samson Balogun has urged the Lagos
State Government to close down the
church permanently if the allegation was
true.
When LEADERSHIP visited the area, it was
observed that to ensure that the premises
remains sealed, a team of policemen was
inside and outside the church auditorium,
while their Mazda patrol vehicle with
registration number BD 36 AW was used to
block the entrance of the church.
The bubble was said to have burst on the
pastor when a resident close to the church
who had gone out to ease himself at about
2am allegedly caught him burying the
child in a shallow grave within the church
premises.
