Joseph Anthony, an acclaimed pastor with Winners Chapel, Njaba, Imo state has been arrested for defiling an 11-year- old daughter of a fellow pastor. Anthony who said had just been transferred to the Njaba chapter of Winners Chapel, blamed temptation for his action. He was waiting to be assigned his residential apartment, when another Pastor offered to harbour him temporarily.
Police Commissioner, Isaac Akinmoyede said Joseph Anthony took advantage of the fact that he was at home alone with the victim and had carnal knowledge of her.
