A Nigerian pastor has taken to social media to express his distress after suspected thieves reportedly broke into his church and stole several items ahead of a planned night vigil.
The incident, which has since drawn widespread attention online, was shared in a video posted on TikTok.
According to the pastor, the theft occurred as preparations were underway for the overnight prayer programme.
Thieves break into church
He revealed that the intruders made away with an air conditioning fan and multiple speakers that had been placed close to the altar for church services.
In addition to the equipment, the pastor disclosed that the thieves also discovered the church’s fuel supply and emptied it completely before leaving the premises.
Disrupts plans of vigil
The losses, he said, have disrupted plans for the vigil and placed an unexpected burden on the church.
He said …
“What has the church done to deserve all this? People of God, God bless you. Today is my last Holy Ghost All night for the year. I just came into the church now with good news and I said let me come and check the sound system and also do some prayers before I leave. Coming to the church, thief has entered the church. Thief has carried speaker, AC fan, they also carried another speaker that stays here (points fingers). I don’t know who is after the church. This is all night vigil and I don’t know where I will get instruments. There was fuel here, filled up. Now it’s empty.”
