Pastor Godfrey Agbonwaneten has been reportedly killed by suspected armed robbers in Benin City, the Edo State capital.
Agbonwanetan, until the unfortunate incident, was the pastor in charge of Evidence of the Gospel Church in Ovia North-East local Government area of Edo State.
The pastor was shot in the early hours of Tuesday by the armed men who attacked parts of the community.
According to the wife of the late pastor, Mrs. Jane Agbonwanetan, the robbers gained access into their apartment by removing the burglary and window louvers.
She said, “My husband woke me up at 2.30a.m when the armed robbers were in the next compound. Before we knew it, they had started breaking our window. I cannot recall what happened next but he went into the room. Suddenly, I heard his cry and when I got there, I found him in a pool of his blood.”
The remains of Pastor Agbonwanetan have been moved to the mortuary while the Police have commenced investigation into the incident.
