A Deeper Life Bible Church Pastor, Jonah Agbenor has been arrested by the police in Delta State for allegedly raping a 10-year-old girl.

Reports say that the incident happened at Ekrokpe community in Ughelli South Local Government Area of the state.

In a post made on social media (Facebook) by one Isreal Joe, a Human Rights Activist who confirmed the incident on Tuesday, it was revealed that the suspect is a close friend to the father of the victim.

According to him, other pastors in the area on his neck to withdraw the case “and allow God to be the judge”.

The suspect is currently being detained at Otu-Jeremi Police Station.

Israel Joe wrote, “A 49 Years Old Deeper life Pastor Jonah Agbenor have allegedly defiled a 10 years old girl repeatedly. We have been on his trial since Thursday last week and he was finally arrested and he is currently detained at Otu-Jeremi Police station.

“The incident which took place at Ekrokpe community Ughelli South Local Government Area has left the area in absolute shock by the pastor is a very close friend to the father of the little girl,” he wrote.

“More than 15 pastors have been prevailing on us to put the issue aside and allow God to be the judge but I asked if he realised God would judge when he was every day sexually abusing the little girl with threats that if she spoke out she would die.

“I, at this point call on the DPO Otu-Jeremi never to compromise the investigations as we are no longer comfortable with his plea for peace. It is a criminal offence and should be transferred to state Headquarters for further investigations and prosecution

“Being a pastor does not keep one immune from issues of criminal prosecution. Thanks to our Cdhr Orhuvworun/Usiefrun unit for following up on this matter from day one. Let’s collectively tell the Police DPO 07065959504 to do the needful.”
