Redeemed Senior Pastor Shot Dead While Praying On Altar In Lagos

The gunmen invaded the church premises located at Maidan in Ikosi Ketu local government while the deceased was praying during a child dedication.

After confirming Mr Ibrahim’s identity with a picture, the assailants attempted to drag him out of the church but were stopped by a senior pastor who was injured for questioning them before Mr Ibrahim was shot on the altar.

Mr Ibrahim’s sister, Justina Alebiosu, told New Telegraph that she suspected Mr Ibrahim had a business deal with people who might want him dead.

”My thinking is that my brother had a business transaction with someone,” she said.

Following the assassination, the deceased’s wife, Kudirat Ibrahim, refuted the notion that her late husband was a cultist claiming that he was fasting the day he was murdered in the church.

The spokesperson for the police command in Lagos, Muyiwa Adejobi, confirmed the killing.
