Pastor Runs Mad WhilePraying For Mad Man

People living at Oke-Ado area of Ibadan, Oyo
State, as well as shop owners and automobile
dealers along Molete road in the town, on
Thursday, watched a drama involving a pastor
and a mad man.


The pastor whose name is Timothy, according to an eyewitness, got to
Ososami junctions of
Oke-Ado around 5.20 p.m and went to meet
the mentally-deranged man, popularly known as
Tunde, who was sitting in front of a building in
the area.


According to Semiu, a shop owner around the spot of the incident, the
pastor began to read
the Bible on sighting the mad man, while he
moved closer to him and laid the hand on his
head


"At a point, there was a hot argument between the duo, which made the
pastor to raise his voice as he was offering a deliverance prayer
for Tunde, the mad man. The hot prayer lasted
for over 15 minutes before another strange
drama began," Semiu told the Nigerian Tribune.


Speaking further, another witness, an okada
rider, said at a point, the mad man removed
the pastor's hand from his head, adding that
"suddenly, a strange spirit got hold of the
pastor and he began to remove his cloth. He
was naked and laid flat on the ground, speaking a strange language,
with foam oozing out of him mouth."


The mad man, it was gathered, initially left him
in this position and sat at some distance away
from the pastor, before the duo later sat
closer to each other, while onlookers watched
the strange drama.


The pastor remained in state of insanity until
the Nigerian Tribune left the scene of the
incident.
