In a startling revelation, Madam Alimot, a woman in her 50s, has unveiled a clandestine operation she participated in, in collusion with a pastor based in a southern state of Nigeria.
Their modus operandi centered on orchestrating sham spiritual healings during church services, preying on the vulnerabilities of congregants, and extracting substantial monetary offerings under pretenses. Madam Alimot divulged that the staged miracles involved fabricating afflictions that would purportedly vanish through the pastor's divine intervention, creating an illusion of spiritual deliverance.
With shouts of jubilation and fervent worship, congregants were ensnared into believing in the authenticity of the miracles, leading them to offer substantial sums of money at the church altar in anticipation of divine blessings.
Despite the elaborate theatrics, Madam Alimot disclosed that her compensation for each orchestrated session was a mere N7,000, which barely covered her expenses, including transportation.
The scheme's intricate workings were exposed when a teenager, unwittingly embroiled in one of the staged miracles, came forward with revelations, prompting an investigation by the Oluyole Security Surveillance Team in Ibadan, Oyo State.
