Superior Evangelist Isaiah Adebola, the Shepherd of Celestial Church of Christ, Gethsemane parish, Ofin in Igbogbo-Bayeku Local Council Development Area of Lagos, his wife and two others were found dead in a pool of their own blood.
According to Vanguard report, on Saturday, June 28, the Evangelist and his wife, Deborah were home when they heard a knock on their door. When the cleric who was just recovering from an undisclosed ailment opened the door, it was his brother-in-law identified as Femi aka One-man Mopol.
Femi reportedly came to call on Isaiah to come and pray for his pregnant wife who was having some health issues. The cleric and his wife were said to have gone with their visitor to his house and that was the last time they were seen alive.
Following their disappearance, the Community Development Association, CDA in the neighbourhood called for a search for the Evangelist and his wife. The Celestial church also raised a team of prayer warriors to unravel the mystery surrounding the disappearance of their shepherd and his wife who was a commercial try-cyclist driver in the locality.
While the search was still ongoing for the cleric and his wife, the colleagues of one-man mopol who worked with a private company in Lagos were searching for him too as he’d been absent from his place of work for days.
As the search continued, neighbours started perceiving an offensive odour and swarm of flies around one-man mopol’s house which led to suspicion and the CDA brought in local security.
When they got to the building, it was locked, preventing anyone from gaining access into the house. The local security had to climb the roof of the building through a pidgeon hole and to their greatest surprise, they found the cleric and his wife in a pool of their own blood while one-man mopol had foam oozing out of his mouth and his pregnant wife had a mould of food on her hand.
After this discovery, the police was invited. After which the corpses were removed from the scene and taken to the morgue for autopsy.
According to some of the residents, the murder was facilitated by the noise from generating sets which must have prevented people from hearing their cry for help.
A resident said, "There is no way all of them would have died without the cry for help but the sound of the generators made it impossible for their distress calls to be heard."
