EXCLUSIVE: Detained Abuja Pastor Raped 14-Year-Old In Church, Threatened To Kill Her If She Exposed Him; Prayed For Her Before, After Assault – Family
By The9JaTREND
The detained founder and lead pastor of Prophetic Victory Voice of Fire Ministry in Gwagwalada, Abuja, Amos Isah, allegedly threatened to kill the 14-year-old girl he is accused of raping in the church auditorium, along with her family, if she spoke out.
Isah was arrested and detained by the Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) over allegations of raping the minor.
The arrest, which took place last week, has sent shockwaves through the community, as Pastor Isah was known for his charismatic sermons and claims of divine power.
His church, located behind Noble Noel Academy, opposite Gwagwalada Market in Abuja, has been a centre of worship for many residents. A review of his Facebook page shows that Isah frequently posted messages about holiness and moral uprightness, contrasting sharply with the allegations against him.
However, a member of the girl’s family told SaharaReporters on Wednesday that Isah has a history of preying on underage girls, often taking them to secluded areas in his tinted-window car.
The source asserted that the abuse escalated when Isah invited the girl to the new church auditorium office, which had been prepared by female church members but was not yet in full use.
The source explained that once inside, he locked multiple doors to prevent escape, allegedly rubbed her head, asked her to kneel and then prayed for her before the assault.
The family source added that after the Isah saw blood, he gave the victim N3,000 for “medication,” prayed for her again, and then threatened to kill her and her family if she ever exposed him.
The source said: “Pastor Amos Isah has been preying on minors. There are others involved, and the police already have investigations underway, so this is not a hidden matter.
“The girl in question is an only child, aged 14 (nearly 15 at the time of the incident). From the start, he followed his usual pattern: luring girls, taking them to bushes in his tinted-window car, where he would assault them.
“He will have even slept with the girl when she was 13, because there was a time he took her in the car, and then he took her to a lonely bush. He first contacted the girl through her mother’s phone. He told her to meet him at the church.
“When she arrived, he manipulated the situation, making it seem like her mother had sent her. Later, he instructed his assistant, Segun, to direct the girl to meet him at Mobil. His intention was clear: to assault her.
“He drove her past his church member’s shop and told the girl to lay low to avoid being seen by church members, then drove to a remote area near Sharia Court in Gwagwalada, parked, and moved to the back seat. When he tried to remove her clothes, she protested, saying she was too young. He backed off but questioned her about her relationships, warning her not to tell anyone.
“The abuse escalated when he called her to his office—a secluded space in the new auditorium, which women had prepared but he had not moved into. He invited her on a Wednesday, but she said she couldn’t make it because she was at her mother’s shop. He invited her again on a Monday to the new auditorium, locked multiple doors, ensuring no escape. When the girl protested, he rubbed her head and asked her to kneel down and prayed, after which he forced himself on her despite her resistance.
“Afterward, he threatened her, gave her N3,000 for ‘medication’ after seeing blood on her. He asked her to kneel down again, prayed for her, and told her to go but warned her not to speak out, implying he had police connections who could harm her or her family.
“The girl later confided in her mother, who took her to a counsellor. Fearful, the girl begged her mother not to tell her father. When the father eventually found out, he reported the case to the police.” (SaharaReporters)
