A preacher identified as Nnamani, has been hacked to death by gangsters for telling them to repent.
The incident happened in Ife, Mkpat Enin Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State.
Punch has it that the Village Head, Chief Saturday Isemin, a retired assistant superintendent of police, said that the gangsters dragged the preacher to a bush near the back of a primary school in the night, where they killed him and hid his corpse.
It was learnt that the village hooligans had threatened few days earlier to deal with the preacher for disturbing them with message about repentance.
Chief Isemin said, “His offence was that he used to disturb them with his preaching. They said that he would be going around asking people to give their lives to Christ.
