The FCT Police Command has began investigation after arresting the Pastor and police officer to his house for a search. They were handcuffed and taken away,” the police source said.
House on the Rock, Abuja Pastor Uche Aigbe and police officer whom he collected the rifle he mounted the pulpit with on Sunday, identified as Inspector Musa Audu have been detained by the Federal Capital Territory Police Command.
A source told SpyeTV that the pastor was invited by the FCT police command on Monday morning to the Guzape office of the anti-car theft of FCT police command, alongside with the policeman whom he collected the rifle he mounted the pulpit with on Sunday.
Earlier, Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi had said the pastor had a case to answer.
In a series of tweets on Sunday, Adejobi said AK-47 rifle falls under the prohibited firearms in Nigeria and only certain law enforcement officers are allowed to do carry it.
He said he had forwarded complaint over the pastor’s action to the FCT Police Commissioner to act.
“But if its true, the pastor will have a case to answer. AK47??. It falls under prohibited Firearms in Nigeria, and no one bears it except an officer of the law, and not all of them have the right, selected sec operatives, but no individual has the right to bear it.
“The FCT police command will investigate it, i trust the new CP FCT, CP Sadiq,.. its shocking,” he wrote
