A 29-year old armed robber, David Chineye was arrested by the Lagos Police last week made a startling confession recently saying after each operation, he goes to church to make confessions.
According to David, he attends Christ Ascension Church in Benin, and said: “I am a dedicated church worker. Nobody knew I was an armed robber. Every time I returned from any operation, my conscience would prick me. Thereafter, I would go to church for confession but would never disclose the exact sin I committed.
My wife didn’t know I was a robber either. This is because I stay in Benin Republic where she is permanently based for two months, before returning to Nigeria, where she believed I was working. I usually visited Benin Republic when we wanted to rob and would leave after investing my loot. This is to allow me get hints on the outcome of the operation, in terms of Police investigation.”
