A friend sent in this story to me this morning,after
reading the story i felt so diver-stated,weak and sad.My entire day has almost
come to an halt after hearing and reading this story.A vibrant young life cut
short in its prime.How could someone who calls himself a man of God do
such?this is the question i keep asking myself.Read full story below:
How more tragic can an event be that a pastor knocks his church member to death. In the early hours of Tuesday, 15th January 2013, any one would sympathize at the thought of how such a man of God would weep haven killed a sheep under his watch. But that could not be said in the case of Ogochukwu Ndubisi the deceased versus Pastor Wilson Akubo.
An eye witness at the scene of the
accident narrated that the deceased was standing by the road side waiting to
board a vehicle to work when the pastor got so distracted as to not realize how
much he was speeding, and suddenly lost control of his car, and in an attempt
to avoid hitting others cars, swerved off the road and killed the deceased on
the spot. Though the pastor’s car was greatly damaged further proving his speed
level, he however came out unhurt.
They family is more saddened by the
fact that from the 15th of January since the event occurred till date, they
have never set their eyes on Pastor Wilson the killer. All they got were mere
text messages and delegates who came to the funeral but never identified
themselves to the family and afterwards claimed a little scene occurred
prompting their immediate exit. However, one at the funeral could remember anything
of sort. Pastor Wilson was even found rendering a testimony of how God saved
him from an accident but failed to mention how his carelessness send a
promising young church member six feet below. Of a true his presence won't
restore life to the deceased, but the most remorse is expected of a
Pastor. Rather he has shown greater lack of concern and sympathy to the
bereaved family.
Some family members who visited
Pastor Wilson in a hospital in Abuja recalled their disbelief when they entered
Pastor Wilson’s room to meet him in person, only to find him watching ‘African
Magic’ and discussing with loud laughter with his wife, the humor portrayed by
the popular Nigerian comedian ‘Osuofia’. Even when he realized that the family
members of the deceases were there to see him, he had to wait on their request
to turn down the volume of the TV and give them audience, claiming the comedy
movie was doctor’s advice. I could only imagine how much the family wished
their decease would receive such “doctor’s advice” to watch comedy and not go
down the grave. Pastor Wilson had since left the comedy clinic
and still didn’t consider a 3 hour trip from Abuja to Jos to see the Ndubisi
family.
The loss of a 25 year old son to a
family, whom the parents have invested so much towards his education, is never
an easy pill to swallow. Ogochukwu Ndubisi the deceased was to travel to
the UK this year for his masters programme.
