The Chief Magistrate of an Enugu magistrates’ court, J. O.

Umezulike, has convicted four pastors in the state, including the General Overseer, Christian Charismatic Movement, Dr Sabinus Onuigbo, for forgery and conspiracy.

Enugu State Police Command had arraigned the convicts: Onuigbo, Ojukwu, Victor, Nwoye and one Tony Ike before the magistrates’ court in 2017 for alleged forgery and conspiracy. Angered by the development, one Mr Innocent Ngwu reported the case to the police. After investigation, the convicts were charged.

The judgment read in part, “The sole issue for determination was the forgery of Rev. Sunny Ndolo’s signature. The defence did not debunk or contradict it all through with their defence. As Lord Denning would say, ‘you cannot put something on nothing and expect it to stand.’ Prosecution proved their case beyond reasonable doubt.”
