A cleric, whose name was given as Obaleme, committed suicide in Warri, Delta State, on Wednesday by setting himself on fire.
It was gathered that Obaleme, who had recently complained of family problems, stopped his car on Udu Bridge in Warri, grabbed a can of fuel and dashed under the bridge.
Eyewitnesses say he then doused himself with the fuel and set himself ablaze. Before onlookers could sufficiently quench the fire, the pastor died.
When contacted, Charles Muka, the state’s police spokesperson, said he was yet to be briefed on the incident.

if one can sit back and think of horrible things going on in the world, if you are a christian, i think is time to reflect on your life, and find out if you are really on track, Rapture is really near, we are in End Times
