“On the 1st day of May 2018 at about 7:30 pm, I got to Pastor Joseph Igwemoh’s office, at his Church Global Influence International Ministries at Owoseni Street, off Mission Road, Benin having gone to fix his car for him, as I am an auto electrician. I got to the door of his Office but found it locked and the lights were off too.
I knocked for over 5 minutes and I heard Pastor Joseph Igwemoh ask “who is that?” and I said I was the one.
“He asked me to wait. only for my wife – Mrs Stella-Maris Alegbe Paul to come out from Pastor Joseph Igwemoh’s office sweating profusely and looking ruffled, I asked her what she was doing there and she said it was a personal business. Just then I saw Pastor Joseph Igwemoh, coming out of the same office my wife came out from, wearing singlet and boxers, and taking orange.
“When I confronted Pastor Joseph Igwemoh that he was having an affair with my wife the said Pastor Joseph Igwemoh started harassing and intimidating me with the police, he first started with the New Benin Police Station in Benin, but the DPO asked me to go that I didn’t do anything.
“Then on Thursday, the 18th day of October 2018, Pastor Joseph Igwemoh arrested me to State CID of the Edo State Police Command, in Benin City, wherein the matter was investigated by the Conflict Resolution Unit. The IPO was one MAHMUD who started beating me up that I must confess that I put something on the Internet against Pastor Igwemoh, which I denied. I told him I will not write anything until I see My Lawyer. He then detained me for more than 24 hours and when my Lawyer came, I was granted Bail.
“During the investigation, After I was granted Bail, I wrote a letter to the said Pastor Joseph Igwemoh through my Lawyer and copied the Commissioner of Police, Edo State, and the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development wherein I complained about the Adulterous affairs going on between him and my wife.
“The Pastor did not respond to that letter till now, but instead, he lured my wife to pack out of our matrimonial home and I heard he rented an apartment for her at Ugbowo, Benin City.
“Throughout my marriage with my wife, she denied me my conjugal right, Pastor Igwemoh warned me to always have sex with my wife with condoms, as my wife is not used to sex, saying my wife was her daughter. Pastor Joseph Igwemoh was even Charged to Court in this case as then Deputy Commissioner of Police State CIID, Edo State (DC Okoh rtd) did the right thing and asked that the Pastor be charged to Court, his actions in this case which was done. The case is before Oredo Magistrate Court 6, Benin City and the case is ongoing.
“Pastor Joseph Igwemoh of GLOBAL INFLUENCE MINISTRY has really frustrated me. He was the one that joined me and my wife together in marriage and I was even his assistant Pastor. I also once saw my wife and Pastor Joseph Igwemoh in his Office, with Pastor Joseph Igwemoh lying down and my wife was sitting by his waist on a foam, while there are chairs in the Office.”
