A prophet, Samson Egbeola, is now in prison custody at Kirikiri
after he was arraigned in court for allegedly sleeping with a house wife, Mrs
Franca Michael, in order to prepare love potion for her. The incident happened
at Egan, Lagos State, southwest Nigeria. The mother of two alleged that Prophet
Egbeola engaged her in marathon S** for several weeks under false pretence.
The 40-year old Prophet Egbeola who is married with four children,and hail from Ogun State, southwest Nigeria. He was
arraigned before Ejigbo Magistrate’s court, Lagos for conduct likely to cause breach of
public peace, obtaining ‘s****l
intercourse' under false pretence and preparation of fetish charms under the
Criminal Code Laws of Lagos State.
The 26-year old Franca from Ogwashi- Ukwu
in Delta State is married to Michael from Bayelsa State in south south Nigeria.
According to Franca, she was introduced to
Egbeola by her friend when she suspected that her husband had another woman.
She said that her friend took her to the
prophet’s house at 16, Akewusola street, Egan,
Lagos where he also double as his church. She told the prophet that her
husband, Michael, no longer loved her as before because he was sleeping outside
his matrimonial home.
During the counseling, the prophet told her that her marriage was in danger and would soon collapse. He told her that he saw another woman taking over her husband and to prevent that from happening, there was need for serious prayers and he would prepare some portion she would use on her husband.
According to the
woman, Egbeola told her that she would pay N30,000 and such prayers involved
having s** with her. The seemingly
desperate woman paid the money and had s** several times with the prophet.
She said, “the prophet inserts candles in her private part ,
shaves hairs from her private part and armpits, cut her nails which he
crushed and mixed with other concoctions and gave her to use to cook food for
my husband. According to her, the prophet also asked her to bring her husband’s photo which she did and he used candles
and black and red robes and tied them together and kept it on his altar.
Trouble however started, after obeying his directive by
sleeping with him and using the concoction as directed to cook which her
husband ate and it did not work. Rather, the relationship worsened. It was then
she went to her husband and confessed and pleaded for forgiveness.
According to
Michael, he noticed changes in her behavior and decided to keep away from her
and started sleeping in the office. He said he knew that she was up with
something but did not know the extent, and throughout that period, he was also
facing a lot of challenges.
When she confessed
and narrated what happened, he knew the prophet had used and defrauded her and
he had to intervene. He said he has forgiven her.
The matter was
reported at Igando police division and Egbeola was arrested and charged to
court.
When Egbeola was contacted,
he said that the woman came to him complaining of her husband and he assisted
and offered her prayers.He said he was happy and grateful to God that the prayer
worked and they are now living together again.
He declined to
speak on whether having s** with Franca was part of the prayers to reconcile
the couple. When Prophet Egbeola was arraigned in court, he pleaded not guilty.
The presiding
Magistrate, Mrs. M. B. Folami granted him bail in the sum of N250, 000 with two
sureties in like sum.
He was, however,
remanded in prison custody at Kirikiri pending when he fulfills his bail
condition.
The matter was
adjourned till 3 April, 2013 for definite hearing.
