The Nigeria Police Force has disclosed that it will investigate the pastor who mounted the pulpit carrying an AK-47 rifle.
Presiding Pastor of the Abuja chapter of the House on the Rock Church, Uche Aigbe, caused a stir during Sunday service when he mounted the pulpit carrying an AK-47 rifle.
He used the gun for illustrative purposes while teaching the topic “Guard your faith” and how critical it is for each Christian to be on their guard.
Reacting to this, the Force’s Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said AK-47 rifle falls under the prohibited firearms in Nigeria and only certain law enforcement officers are allowed to do such. He wrote:
“But if its true, the pastor will have a case to answer. AK47??. It falls under prohibited Firearms in Nigeria, and no one bears it except an officer of the law, and not all of them have the right, selected sec operatives, but no individual has the right to bear it.
“The FCT police command will investigate it, I trust the new CP FCT, CP Sadiq,.. its shocking.”
