There was drama at a police station recently after Chizemdere Ezuma, a self-acclaimed reverend arrested for sodomising and infecting a 16-year-old boy, Shedrack, with human immunodeficiency virus tried to molest a suspect while in custody.
Ezuma reportedly made overtures at a male suspect with whom he was kept in a cell at the Lagos State Police Command headquarters in Ikeja and attempted to molest him. It was learnt that the suspect, whom Ezuma wanted to sodomise last Saturday night, raised the alarm and threatened to beat him up.
One of the policemen on duty was said to have relocated Ezuma to another cell and kept an eye on him till the next morning. “All the policemen on duty that night were amazed when the suspect complained that the pastor wanted to molest him. The suspect said the pastor was romancing his legs and when he was awake, the pastor gestured for him to come close,” a police source told our correspondent.
The source stated that Ezuma, the founder of ‘Jesus Intervention Household Ministry,’ did not deny the allegation when a policeman confronted him.
“He was taken to another cell that night and was kept under watch. He had been arraigned for sexual harassment. A boy (Shedrack) whom he was sleeping with was also charged with prostitution. The boy confessed to have slept with a lot of men in exchange for money. He was remanded in a correctional home while Ezuma was remanded in prison custody,” the source added. However, the spokesperson for the police in the state, DSP Bala Elkana, denied that the scenario played out.
