The ongoing crisis in the Assemblies of God Church took another dangerous twist on Sunday morning as troops took over an Effurun, Delta State branch of the church.
Some Worshipers told our reporter that Armoured Personnel Carriers (APC) stormed the Glory House Parish of the church on Oti Street, off Aka Avenue, Effurun, and ordered worshipers to close.
Commanding Officer, 13 Battalion Lt Colonel Patrick Igwe said he was not aware of the incident.
Sunday’s incident came on the heels of a similar invasion of the church by thugs.
