After making a confession to his pastor about stealing N450K from the church's offering box some months ago, a man found himself in a difficult situation as he got arrested and was asked to refund every penny. The incident came to light when a Twitter user named dexterouz11 shared the tale of the church member's theft while he was a worker in the church.[/b]
Despite never having been caught, the guilt and conscience pricked the man enough to make a confession to the presiding pastor. In response, the clergyman took drastic action and had him locked up until the money was refunded, regardless of whether he came out clean or not.
