An abandoned church building where babies were said to have been pounded before the evil practice was exposed, has been taken over by a fast growing new generation church in Port Harcourt.
TPCN gathered that the baby-pounding practice was once flourishing in the church, said to be headed by a female pastor, before the evil practice, which sources have described as an end-time sign, was finally exposed when the lid was let off.
According to feelers, the last straw that broke the Carmel’s back in the church was when the proprietors of the ministry and their cohorts, in a mini maternity situated inside the church, delivered a pregnant woman of twins and took one for pounding while the woman was still dizzy. Their reason for taking the baby immediately, it was gathered, was to conclude the pounding before the woman could realize what was happening.
But unknown to them, the woman had already noticed that she delivered twins, although she was still not strong enough to ask for her babies, as she was still in the labour room when they took the baby and started pounding it in one of the rooms said to be used as office by the pastor of the church.
When the husband of the newly delivered woman came, he saw his wife and baby and started thanking God for the safe delivery. However, his surprised wife, having regained some strength by then, was surprised to see only one baby and quickly told him that what she delivered were twins. On hearing that, the man became very curious and immediately rushed to the pastor’s office, perhaps to demand for explanation of what may have happened. With that speed, he pushed the door open and saw a fat woman pounding a baby in a mortar while using her gigantic buttocks to attempt to block the door.
With chills running down his spine, the man, who was shocked to his marrow, threw caution to the winds and started shouting on top of his voice, crying that they were pounding his innocent baby, thus causing commotion as his cries began to attract the attention of the few people in the church. Almost immediately, a team of security operatives, believed to have been contacted by the pastor of the church and her collaborators, arrived at the scene and with the speed of lightning, bundled the man, his wife and their remaining new born baby into their vehicle and whisked them away to the airport from where they were allegedly flown abroad.
According to sources, the couple’s relocation to overseas was rumoured to have been directed by some high placed individuals secretly working with the perpetrators of the heinous crime and was meant to shut the couple up permanently.
After that incident, the church, situated around Mile 4 area of Port Harcourt, was deserted while the pastor and her collaborators went underground, TPCN sources revealed. For almost a year, the building remained abandoned until a fast growing new generation church in Port Harcourt allegedly acquired it recently.
Commenting on the alleged acquisition of the abandoned church building by the new generation church, Pastor Dan Ekhiamwen, who has a ministry in Port Harcourt, said there was nothing wrong in it, describing it as a good omen for the kingdom of God.
According to him, there is no vacuum in the Kingdom of God, noting that the alleged acquisition of the church by another church was good since the work of God must go on.
“If at all they were using the place to perpetrate such evil as pounding of babies as they are rumouring, then it is not good. The word of God is clear on that. The Lord Jesus said that he who kills by the sword will perish by the sword. Also, Galatians chapter 6 verse 7 says that God cannot be mocked and that whatever a man sows, that he shall reap. But my prayer is that God should forgive such evil doers. There is no vacuum in the Kingdom of God, so it is good if another church has taken over the building. Their prayers there will help to cleanse the evil committed there if at all it is true. Remember that after Judas killed himself after betraying Jesus, the apostles replace him with Mathias, to show that the work of God must go on. That is how it is,” Pastor EKhiamwen said.
