“The doors were shut but not bolted or locked with padlock, so he gained access into the church through the third door to commit the havoc,” Rhema newsmen on phone.
She said after the destruction, the man slept off inside the church until the morning when people, who went for morning prayers, were taken aback by the strange state of their church while the perpetrator laid asleep on one side of the destroyed floor.
The Assistant Parish priest, Reverend Father Matthew Majok, could not be reached on phone but our source said the Reverend Father incharge of the church was on suspension. However, the assistant (Majok) visited the church on Monday to record details of items destroyed.
“I just came back from school and heard that our main priest is on suspension and I don’t know the cause but his assistant, Father Majok was here on Monday to take down details of what were destroyed by the man.”
Ms Irene Ugbo, the state Police Command spokesman said she was yet to be briefed on the matter.
