According to the pastor; “A native doctor he went to gave him the small coffin and a soap and told him that after using the soap to bath, he will see money in large quantity after seven days but unfortunately for me, after using the items for seven days, I saw nothing and it’s about three months now.”
When asked what he was doing with all the panties and braziers in his possession, he denied using them for any spiritual exercise.
Speaking on the use of remote control to convince his victims, Pastor Egbo said; “The native doctor gave him an item and instructed he chew seven seeds of alligator pepper and pour on the item rapped in a red cloth and say whatever he wants and it will come to pass.
