Police arrest pastor over N200m WAEC fraud

A pastor with one of the largest pentecostal churches in the country has been nabbed by the police in connection with the N200m West African Examinations Council fee fraud in Ogun State.

So far, over N20m had been discovered by detectives in a personal bank account of the pastor (names withheld) who is one of the four directors in the Ministry of Education.

Also, four expensive cars were said to have been discovered in the garage in the pastor’s house.

Our correspondent learnt from police sources that huge sums of money ranging from N10m to N15m had similarly been discovered in the bank accounts of three other directors allegedly involved in the fraud.Police sources said when the pastor was questioned over the N20m found in his bank account, he merely pleaded for forgiveness.

Na wa o, omo pastor calm down o, let me even help him say the usual statement we get when they are caught "it is the devils handwork".
