A Chief Magistrate’s Court sitting at Lokoja, Kogi State, has remanded Pastor Peter Michonza of the New Jerusalem Deliverance Ministry, Ageva, in the Okene Local Government Area of Kogi State, in the Federal Custodial Centre, Kabba for 14 days.

Our Correspondent recalls that Michonza was arrested on Sept. 19, 2022 by the Department of State Services following an outcry by the people of the local government and the council chairman of the activities of the religious leader.

The suspect is accused of running labour wards for pregnant women in his church and selling ‘bullet-proof’ water to the people, among other practices, which allegedly led to the death of many people.

The Chief Magistrate, Abdul Umar, remanded the cleric on Thursday, following an ex parte application the DSS filed to enable the agency continue further investigations.

In the application, the accused was alleged to have committed culpable homicide, caused miscarriage and impersonated, offences punishable under sections 224, 232, 433 and 325 of the Kogi State Penal Code.
