BEVERLY HILLS, January 27, (THEWILL) – Controversial Anambra prophet, Onyeze Jesus, has tendered his apology to Nigerians and Anambra State for abusing the Naira notes and filming nude videos of people online.
THEWILL recalls that the Anambra State Government had frowned at the ‘criminal and indecent’ action of the prophet after a viral video of him and his followers in a river at Nkpor, Idemili Local Government Area of the state. The followers bathed naked as Onyenze Jesus sprayed them with N50 notes.
A statement signed by the Anambra State Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Don Adinuba, stated that the prophet promotes superstitions as Onyeze Jesus tells his followers that their problems are caused by closed relatives.
The statement also disclosed that destruction of the naira notes by the prophet contravenes the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN Act of 2007.
Reacting, Onyeze Jesus took to his social media page to apologise as he stated that his enemies and ‘greedy pastors’ have been using the viral video for propaganda and to threaten him.
He said: “But that’s not why I am here. I am here to apologise to Nigerians and Anambra at large for using N50 Naira and spreading it on people that I am working. And also for showing nakedness on social media. It is a mistake. I am not the one that posted it. People are managing my page. Immediately I noticed that, I deleted it. But before then some people have shared all of them.
“Those 50 Naira that I spread is not even up to N1000. But water did not carry all of them. Somebody down there is picking them. That work is …if I spray the money, people down there pick it so shall all their lost blessings will be found. That is the meaning of that money that I spray. I cannot waste Nigerian money. I am not a bastard. I am not a coward. People are trying to use it to blackmail me.”
