The Ondo State Police Command has dismissed claims in Some Sections of the Social media that a Popular Pastor and Prophet, Samuel Afolabi (aka Olopa to di Woli) was arrested and detained by the Police for a particular Offence.
The Command said the Minister of God was never arrested for any offence as being peddled, hence the report was a blantant lie from the pit of hell, as the man never Committed any offence known to law.
However, to set the record straight, a particular man by name Ayetare Sunday, 35 years,a native of itepe Okitipupa, who went for a Crusade at a white garment Church in igbokoda, was arrested on 27/12/2019, for attempted Rape and Sexual harassment.
On interrogation, the man confessed to be a fake Prophet who had been deceiving People by Organising fake miracles.
He stated further that he deceived his latest victim who was looking unto God for a child by telling her that he could make her pregnant, adding that in the process ,he sexually harassed the woman and attempted to rape her.
He said that he decided to adopt the same Cognomen (Olopa to di Woli) with Prophet Samuel, in order to hoodwink people so as to get enough followers.
It was however established that the suspect was never a policeman but an impostor and serial fraudster.
He has since been charged to court and currently remanded in Okitipupa Correctional Service Center.
Police said these clarifications became necessary so as to disabuse the minds of members of the Public who might have been deceived that the real and popular Akure-based (Olopa to di Woli) was the one being referred to in the fake report.
