The Anambra State government has declared an all-out war on fake pastors and prophets who exploit religion to facilitate crime and corruption.
Plans are now in motion to arrest and prosecute those using the pulpit as a cover for fraudulent schemes, manipulations, and criminal activities.
Commissioner for Information, Dr. Law Mefor, made this revelation in an exclusive video interview with ABS, stated that Governor Soludo’s administration is set to cleanse the religious space of both fake Christian and traditional worshippers.
According to him, the state can no longer watch as con artists posing as ‘men of God’ continue to exploit people’s faith, manipulate emotions, and profit from orchestrated miracles and fake prophecies while enabling crime and corruption.
Dr. Mefor emphasized that the crackdown will focus on several fraudulent practices, including the commercialisation of so-called ‘holy’ water and miracle oils, deceptive prophecies designed to extort, and fake spiritual encounters used to attract desperate followers
He warned that the newly enacted Anambra State Homeland Security Law will be ruthless, to ensure that no fraudster, no matter their disguise, escapes justice.
