Yesterday, Isaac Ayegbo, 6, and Ayomide Innocent, 4, were reportedly found inside a bus belonging to Christ Crusaders’ Deliverance Ministry, Matogun, Lambe Ogun State, after they went missing on Sunday, Punch reports. They’re playing outside the Ayegbos’ residence, which was opposite the church, when they went missing.
Isaac’s uncle, Abiodun, said: “The police initially wanted to change the fact that the children were found dead on the church premises, but we stood our grounds. I took some pictures in the church but we were not allowed to take the picture of the children.
I found Isaac’s slippers inside a car and about eight other sandals in a bus. I suspect foul play and want this case to be properly investigated and the culprits brought to book. Some boys in the community nearly set the church on fire. The policemen and I had to calm them down. We want justice on this matter.”
Ayomide’s father, Nouanti Innocent, passed out when he heard the news and he had yet to regain consciousness as of yesterday evening. His wife had yet to be informed of the incident. The Ogun State Police spokesperson, DSP Muyiwa Adejobi, said the pastor of the church, Babatunde Olakunle, and a church worker, Adewale Babalola, had been arrested. Cc: Punchng
