She also claimed that the Pastor forbade her from leaving the house, but she was able to flee when he forgot to lock the door, and she ran to a church.
The victim, who claimed she saw ladies panties of various colours and pictures of women inside the prophet’s house, also claimed she was bleeding from her private parts after the incident.
She said “Around 6 p.m., my in-law drove me to a church on IBB Way in Uyo and promised to pick me up by 7 p.m. When my in-law left the church, the accused person called a tricyclist, who arrived on his bike.

He (the suspect) invited me to get into the tricycle and said he was going to pray for two people, including me.
“As soon as we arrived, he prayed for the first and second people. After that, he and I walked to the main road, where he flagged down a tricycle, which we both boarded. The tricyclist came to a halt at one point, and the accused said I should wait for him.
