‘They are NOT our Members’- MFM Church Speaks on Drug Traffickers Arrested in Cambodia
The Chairman of
MFM Media Committee Worldwide, Oladele Bank-Olemoh has shut down claims
that the eight Nigerians arrested by Cambodian authorities, for alleged
drug trafficking, are members of MFM church.
The eight
Nigerian men were arraigned together with a Cambodian for allegedly using
MFM premises to deal in illicit drugs. They may reportedly face life imprisonment
if found guilty by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court.
Speaking to SUNDAY
PUNCH, Bank-Olemoh said that linking Mountain of Fire and Miracle
Ministries to the accused persons was an attempt to drag the name of the
church through the mud. He also added that the allegations appeared to be a
vendetta against the church.
“You know the
country is a Muslim country. The MFM church is the only African church in
Cambodia that many black people attend,” he said.
He also revealed
that the church was searched and no drugs were found but admitted that the
suspects were arrested outside the premises of the church.
However, The
Cambodia Daily reports that the accused “operated out of the Mountain of Fire
and Miracles Ministries Church in Meanchey district between 2014 and early
2015.”
A verdict is
expected to be given on the case in September following the final
trial which took place last week.
