Pastor charged for destroying shrine

Police have arraigned a pastor, who reportedly destroyed a traditional shrine at Ketu community, Ayetoro in Yewa North Local Government Area of Ogun State. 

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Abimbola Oyeyemi, who disclosed this in a telephone interview in Abeokuta, said Evangelist Wale Fagbere was charged for malicious damage and conduct likely to cause breach of peace. Oyeyemi said the action of the cleric was wrong, because, according to him, every Nigerian has the freedom of worship.
He said: “What he did was wrong and so, he must be charged to court. If it was the other way round too, they would also be charged to court. “Everyone has a right to worship whatever deity one chooses without fear or favour.”https://newtelegraphonline.com/pastor-charged-destroying-shrine/
