Businessman Gives Stolen SUV To Pastor For Prayers For His Barren Wife

A businessman who deals in automobile, Osas Felix Bright, has confessed that he buys stolen vehicles from robbers and gave one of such SUVs to a pastor to pray for his barren wife to get pregnant.

Bright was arrested along with Pastor Titus Onwuchekwa who collected the stolen SUV for "prayer".

Bright made the confession when they were paraded by the State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni last week. Police also recovered 18 stolen vehicles of various brands from him.

Bright confessed that Pastor Onwuchekwa did not know that the SUV he gave to him was stolen but, sadly, the pastor committed himself (out of greed) when he contacted him again and was demanding to buy another car (Toyota Camry) for just N250,000.

Delta Stat- born Bright also revealed that he did not tell his wife that he was buying stolen vehicles from armed robbers. He explained that she only knew him as a genuine auto dealer at Berger.

“My wife does not know that I buy stolen vehicles. She got to know after I was arrested,” Bright said.

Bright also confessed that he knew that suppliers of the recovered vehicles were car snatchers because he buys the SUVs at give-away prices.

Pastor Titus Onwuchekwa of the Presbyterian Church, Umuahia in Abia State, was arrested along with other suspects, Bola Salami, 30, Opeyemi Aregbesola, 28, Chibuike Umeh, 22, and Ndibe Samuel.

He said unknown to Pastor Onwuchekwa, he (Bright) was already in police custody, adding that it was when the pastor came to Lagos to buy the Toyota Camry that he was also arrested.

Pastor Onwuchekwa claimed that he did not know that the SUV was stolen.

He said when he contacted Bright and informed him that he was a pastor, he was elated and informed him that he was sowing a seed with the SUV.

He said he only paid him N350,000 and he prayed for him and his wife became pregnant.

Unfortunately for the pastor, he would be charged to court with the bad guys.
