A shocking incident unfolded this morning in Orhuwhorun, Warri, where an assistant pastor at a Winners Chapel church was allegedly caught in a fraudulent transaction with a yahoo boy, leading to a series of violent events.
According to reports, the pastor, who had been serving as a middleman for a group of internet fraudsters, became the target of furious individuals after a transaction involving a foreign account went wrong.
The story began when a Yahoo boy from the pastor’s street gave him a job.
The pastor, acting as a middleman, helped process a financial transaction using his account. The money was successfully transferred into the pastor’s account and confirmed by the recipient, a white man from the USA.
However, the problem arose when the recipient refused to send the money to Nigeria, despite the successful transfer.
The situation quickly escalated when the Yahoo boy, along with other fraudsters involved in the scheme, began to beat the pastor severely.
He was reportedly forced to sleep on the ground while they stomped on him, demanding that the issue be resolved.
The beating did not end there, as the pastor was later instructed to repair a phone that had been damaged in the chaos, which would cost 35,000 naira. Unfortunately, the pastor could not afford to pay the repair fee.
The pastor, who is married with three children, had already sold some of his belongings to pay his children’s school fees and was struggling to make ends meet.
In a desperate attempt to resolve the matter, he reached out to fellow pastors at the church for assistance.
They managed to gather 35,000 naira to repair the phone, but the situation remained tense, as the other party involved demanded 300,000 naira by the following day.
The situation became even more complicated as it was revealed that the pastor and the Yahoo boy had originally agreed to split a total sum of 70 million naira.
The pastor was to receive 35 million naira, with the same amount going to the Yahoo boy and his associates.
However, the white man, who was supposed to transfer the money, refused to send it, causing the entire plan to collapse.
FULL STORY:
“This morning, something happened to me. The person involved is an assistant pastor at a Winners’ Chapel in the Orhuwhorun Warri area.”
“The pastor had been helping some Yahoo boys, and one of them gave him a job. The Yahoo boy used the pastor’s account for a transaction, and the transaction was successful. The money entered the account, and the recipient confirmed it. The problem arose when the receiver refused to send the money to Nigeria.”
“The account owner is a white man from the USA, and the pastor acted as the middleman.”
“The Yahoo boys became angry and started beating the pastor. They even made him lie on the ground, stepping on him. The situation worsened because the guy who gave the pastor the job had also collected from other people who were part of the deal.”
“So, when the other parties couldn’t reach the guy who gave the pastor the job, they destroyed his property and injured his wife. The aggression from them was transferred to the pastor, and they broke his phone in the process. The guy then demanded that the pastor fix the phone, which would cost 35,000.”
“However, the pastor didn’t have any money to fix the phone. In fact, he had already sold some of his belongings to pay his children’s school fees. He was even struggling to feed his family, as he is married with three children. The pastor then called on his fellow pastors to help settle the matter. They came together and managed to pay the 35k to repair the phone.”
“But the issue didn’t end there. The other party now demanded 300k from the pastor by tomorrow, no matter what. The original agreement between the pastor and the guy was a 50:50 split, with a total of 70 million. The pastor and his partner were supposed to get 35 million, while the other party was to share the remaining 35 million. However, the deal didn’t go as expected because the white man refused to send the money to Nigeria.”
“There was also a secondary agreement between the pastor and the guy: if the job failed, the guy would pay the pastor’s share. But things took a turn for the worse, and everything went upside down.”
