Mother of 18 year old speaks. Says her son lied against Fireman

                    
We all heard the gist of an 18 year old boy who killed a 12 year old virgin girl...all because his pastor promised him N100,000. Another update on that story has it that the said pastor turned out to be controversial Lagos pastor, Sign Fireman, who was picked up by men of the Lagos police force and we hear the last of the matter is yet to be heard as the matter will be going to trail.

In a recent development, the mother of the 18 year old boy has stepped forward (and instead of sticking with her son...like most mothers) to say that her son is possessed and has no idea what he's doing. According to her, her son's problem started two years ago when a neighbor placed a curse on him, boasting that he will make the boy useless.

Continue to read how the mother sold out on her son to protect the pastor...

“What happened was that we have a well in our compound and Ikechukwu and one of the man’s daughters were at the well fetching water and they had a quarrel.  Ikechuwu beat up the  girl and when the man returned he brought out a belt to whip Ike and I prevented him. He started boasting that he was going to make Ike useless and miserable. I thought he was joking but after that Ikechuwu started behaving funny.
“Whenever he goes out during the day and sees a little girl he would grip and attempt to rape her and the girl would scream alerting people around, who would arrest and beat him up before handing him over to the police at Badagry Police Station.

About him been arrested four times for attempted rape

“On lucky days, he would escape and flee the area.  He has been arrested four times over the same offence and I am the one who normally goes to bail him.

“In April last year, he made me lose over N25,000 I paid as WAEC exam fee. On the day he was supposed to start the exam, he left home with his school uniform and didn’t return  until after two weeks. When he came back he told me that the demon  came over him on his way to school and he gripped a girl and when the girl screamed he managed to escape so he decided to run away from home.
“I and the father went to beg the people whose child he molested and I decided to follow him to school through out his NECO examinations.
“The last one before this occurred on December 10, 2013 at Imeke. He was arrested and charged to court and remanded in Badagry Prison. I got a lawyer who stood for him before he was granted bail.
“While these things were happening, I told our branch pastor at Badagry about it but I didn’t tell our GO.
“Whenever he sees a little girl he would grip the girl and when she screams he would return to him self. He does not do it at night, it’s always during the day time.

 “On this particular case, he told me that he was going to work at a place where a building was demolished by government opposite the French Village in Badagry.  They are actually constructing a factory at that place and he used to help them carry bags of cement for which they paid him some stipends at the end of the day.
“He  failed to return  home that day and I and his father went out to look for him at his place of work and people around told us that they didn’t see him.  The next day we didn’t see him, so by Wednesday, we decided to go to the police station at Badagry.
“A police woman we met told us that we should go to the SCID to look for him. I asked her what was his offence and she refused to tell me, rather she said when I got to the SCID that I would know what was my son’s offence.

“The next day I and my husband went to the SCID and  when I saw my son he told me that there was a woman who sells food close to where he used to work and the woman had a daughter.
“He said on that day he was eating at the woman’s shop when he saw the girl passing and all of a sudden something came over him and he stood up and followed the girl and gripped her so tight and the girl screamed and died after which he regained consciousness.


“He attempted to run, but someone at a building close by who saw all what happened apprehended him. He used to tell me that he was not misbehaving consciously but that something used to come over him and I have told our branch pastor about it and he prayed for him.
