KanyiDaily had reported how members of Anambra Task Force demolished Odumeje’s church on Thursday and there was a face-off between the pastor and some of the task force members.

Speaking on Friday night, Solubo said there were several notices sent to all those whose properties were marked for demolition, but they failed to remove such structures within a timeframe.

The governor, who noted that those affected will pay for the cost of demolishing their structures, said that two parishes of the Catholic church were still waiting for demolition.

He said, “It is costing us money. They had several notices to remove such structures, but they refused.

“The demolition started yesterday (Thursday), and so far so good. The demolition went well, except for Pastor Odumeje, who according to the report drove in, in a brazen manner and attempted to take over the equipment.

“Of course, state work must go on, and security had to stop him. This was a man who was in several meetings we had, and also spoke.

“In fact, this is costing us money, and the structures should have been removed before now, but they chose to test the resolve of the government.

“Once we are done with this exercise, we will compile the bills and send to the persons involved, and they must pay.”
