Anambra State Governor, Prof. Charles Soludo has given reason why a church belonging to popular prophet, Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, known as Odumeje, was demolished.

A statement issued by Soludo’s spokesman, Christian Aburime on Thursday said the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention Deliverance Ministries, owned by Odumeje was an illegal structure.

He said Odumeje was served demolition notice since April and that he did not vacate the structure.

“Following the expiration of the more than two months notice beginning from April 2022 served on developers and building owners who built several illegal structures along the waterway in Fegge and environs within Onitsha, Anambra state government has begun demolition of such structures.

“The exercise which is being carried out by a joint government task force, commenced the exercise from Bida Road by Modebe Avenue, Fegge Onitsha.

“The affected buildings include Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention Deliverance Ministries, shops and other perimeter fences.

“The structures were marked since April, 2022 and all developers and building owners were served notice to remove such illegal structures,” he said.

Odumeje’s church was demolished on Thursday by a joint government taskforce.

Maxymilliano:
It was reported that only the security house was affected and not the main building.

But the taskforce men funny Sha, see the way they slapped him like those homeless traffic robbers for Lagos

Henix:


His church building is blocking waterways, which thereby causes flooding in that part of Onitsha whenever it rains. We can't continue living like animals in this country

uniquetechng:
Do you know Lagos state government demolish buildings daily without compensation and nobody make noice about such demolition, why do you all turn every into tribal rumble ?

Chigold101:

So we should allow people to build indiscriminately and block water ways?
When something is illegal it's illegal.

Probably you don't know, Onitsha has over 20 well structured markets.
Ndị Igbo naturally are travellers that's why they travel to make money.

Fcwilly:


The way you reason is the reason Nigeria is remaining where it is today, you are reasoning backward.

Imagine if that was an El Rufai or Sanwo Only government... Would you justify the demolition and attack on Odumeje so well? This is why people prefer to do their business outside southeast.

Sometimes I wish instead of demolishing 'illegal' structures, government should convert them to some other uses.

Stop talking nonsense.
His church sits on a waterway. Check the videos of his beating today, look by the left and you will see that he built the church at the worst place possible. Demolishing that church is right! Beating him up while doing so, is wrong!
You talking trash about business outside igboland is typical.
Tinupoo urchins will always represent..

Government gave him demolition notice since April but he was waiting for od to intervene.
