For 22 years, says Victory Agamu, she has lived as spiritual
slave of, and being tormented by, Olumba Olumba Obu, founder
of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. And to make matters
worse, she has gone to the end of the world in search of another
man or woman of God who can set her free from this seeming
spellbind but has met with no luck. Now, she says, she is
beginning to believe that Olumba Olumba is indeed, God.
According to Agamu, her trouble began ever since she joined
the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, founded by the self
acclaimed God O.O Obu. She was actually taken there by her
parents, along with her eight siblings.
“The problem started when I was seven in the 1970s when
my parents normally took me and my siblings to the local branch
of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star at Akwa Ibom”,
Agamu recalled to Saturday Sun.
“I began to have some strange experiences where I regularly
saw Olumba Olumba appear to me as a snake and wrap himself
around me in the dream. Sometimes he would appear as a human
being and I grew up with the torment and it began to affect
me. I could no longer sleep. And because of this, I left the
church in 1986 but still, the torment didn’t stop.”
Agamu said that she sought counsel from different men of God
who joined her in her prayers and fasting as well as deliverance
sessions but all came to nought as the torment has continued
to this day.
At a point, she said she was forced to go and confront Olumba
Olumba at his headquarters. But she could not get to see him,
as a result of all the screenings ansd protocol one had to
pass through before seeing the sectarian leader. She eventually
gave up on that too.
When her case became hopeless, she was forced to return to
the same sect. “I had no choice than to rejoin the church
three years later, with the hope that the nightmares will
stop, but it didn’t work. I stayed there till 1992 and
when it appeared my problem was not getting any better, I
left and began running from one man of God to another yet
there has been no solution”.
Agamu added: “there have been no sleep for me since
then and as you can see, I am ripe for marriage but each time
I get engaged it doesn’t work. To survive is very hard
for me now and the situation has made me a total wreck.”
Escape to Italy
At the height of the problem, Agamu had to run away from Nigeria.
She appeared to have finally broken the bond when in 1999,
she travelled – to Italy, but unknown to her, her problem
is no respecter of distance. In Italy, she said, Olumba Olumba
continued to haunt her. “The problem followed me to
Italy. The company where I worked folded up, my visa was not
renewed and to survive became a problem till I was deported
early this year. At the moment I survive through help from
kind hearted Nigerians.”
Each time she makes a move to do anything , according, to
her Olumba will appear to her to tell her that she will not
succeed and she never does. Even when she embarks on seeing
men of God, she would be told that they will be manipulated
by him and it always turns out so. He would boast to her that
after the ministrations and deliverance, he will still appear
to her and continue to torture her. It has always been the
case.
Agamu told Saturday Sun that Olumba’s
son and some members of the brotherhood have appealed to him
to leave her alone but he regfused. She also exposed some
of the sordid happenings in the church where the leader is
said to be the master of manipulations, manipulating members
to do his biddings.
Challenge to men of God
With so much frustration in her tone and mien, Agamu throws
a challenge to all men of God and well meaning Nigerians to
come to her rescue. She said she is beginning to think that
Olumba is stronger than every other man or woman of God in
the land.
“I have been prayed for, laid hands on, fasted for and
anointed with oil. Deliverance services have been conducted
for me by notable men of God within and outside Nigeria -
including Benny Hinn, Joyce Meyer, Bishop David Oyedepo, Pastor
Lazarus Mouka, Evangelist Helen Akpabio, Pastor Agboli and
many others too numerous to mention and yet nothing has changed.
Therefore I am challenging all the pastors that if I cannot
be helped out of this situation then Olumba Olumba is God. |
