Apostle Odola has been arrested and detained by the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), a government agency tasked with addressing human trafficking and related offenses.
The arrest took place three days ago in Abuja following serious allegations of sexual misconduct against the religious leader.
The news broke on the Facebook page of Nigerian-South Africa based journalist Solomon Izang, who reported that the arrest was prompted by a series of allegations brought forward by several alleged victims.
These victims claim that over the years, Apostle Odola has coerced them into non-consensual sexual activities.
The allegations, which include charges of rape, were brought to light by freelance journalist Martin, who was approached by the alleged victims and subsequently gathered substantial evidence against the apostle.
The case has sparked significant public interest, and further developments are expected as the investigation unfolds.
Apostle Odola’s representatives have yet to release an official statement regarding the arrest and the accusations against him.
The story is still developing, with more updates anticipated in the coming days.
