Sunday, October 5, 2025 - The Ebonyi State Police Command has arrested the General Overseer of Champion the Truth Cathedral, Bishop Ndibueze Okorie Onyagoziri, for allegedly s3xually exploiting a 22-year-old female sickle cell patient under the guise of changing her genotype from SS to AA.
According to punch, the cleric had been in the habit of
having canal knowledge of female members of his church who were in one need or
the other, to provide succour for them.
The Police Public Relations Officer of the command, DSP
Joshua Ukandu, who confirmed the incident to the publication on Thursday,
October 3, 2025 said the suspect was in their custody even as an investigation
was ongoing on the matter.
“Yes, the bishop is with us here at the police headquarters,
Abakaliki. I don’t have any other information as the case is under
investigation. On Wednesday, October 1, he was arrested by our men and brought
to the state police command over the act,” the PPRO stated.
In a video sighted online, the victim said that she started
living with the cleric following her health condition after the decision of the
cleric and her family that she should be living in the church to enable her to
be healed from her illness through divine treatment.
She lamented that the “spiritual healing” failed to solve
her case as it worsened.
She alleged that the bishop had assured her that a seven-day
s3x with him was all she needed for her genotype to change from SS to AA.
She further stated that because of her desperation to
survive the sickness that had already taken the lives of her three other
siblings, she gave in to the option.
She lamented that after the seven-day sexual intercourse
with the general overseer, her health issues became compounded, and she raised
the alarm and informed her sister about it.
Her elder sister, according to her, stepped into the matter
and insisted she must return home since the so-called divine treatment was no
longer working.
“The Bishop repeatedly threatened to upload pictures of our
sexual activities if I left him,” she said.
According to her, she later left the cleric and went back to
her village, only to see her nude pictures with the cleric on social media,
eliciting reactions.
Meanwhile, Onyeagoziri has denied having any s3xual
intercourse with the victim, adding that his phone was stolen and those who
stole the phone used Artificial Intelligence to post his “doctored” nudity with
that of the girl.
“My phone was stolen earlier this month, and after all
efforts by those in possession of the phone to extort me failed, they resorted
to denting my image. Those pictures you see are doctored. They aren’t real,” he
said.
