Ondo Prophetess Arrested After Woman and Newborn Die from Childbirth Complications at Church
The Ondo State Police Command has detained Prophetess Folashade Kikiowo Adekola of Christ Engracing Deliverance Ministry in Akure, following the tragic death of 28-year-old Jumoke Adesuwa and her newborn baby during childbirth at the church.
Reports indicate that Adesuwa experienced severe bleeding after giving birth at the prophetess’s church, which led to the baby’s immediate death and ultimately her own.
The incident came to light after Adesuwa’s brother filed a complaint at the Oke-Aro Police Station. Ondo Police spokesperson, Mrs. Funmilayo Odunlami, confirmed that Adekola is currently in custody while investigations continue.
Family sources disclosed that Adesuwa had gone to the church days before her delivery without informing her husband, Ayodele Adesuwa, who had provided funds for her to register at a government hospital.
Unaware of her whereabouts, Ayodele only learned about her delivery after being contacted by someone at the church.
When family members arrived, they found her in critical condition and attempted to rush her to hospitals, but she was turned away from three facilities before passing away in the fourth.
Upon returning to the church for the newborn’s body, they found the remains in a room that, according to family members, was ill-suited for childbirth.
The woman’s remains have been deposited at the mortuary as the investigation into this tragic event continues.
It has been reported that a Nigerian won the 2026 Spelling Bee World Championship, which was held in Shanghai, China. The winner, Chinedu Great Okdediachi, has now returned home to Delta State after his victory.
It can be noted that the student had already emerged as one of the Gold Award winners in the Middle School Group category.
“Congratulations once again, Chinedu! Your success continues to inspire young Nigerians to pursue excellence through education. Welcome home, Champion!”
The young star has made Nigeria proud by winning the international competition.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has stated that his administration’s economic reforms have helped stabilise Nigeria’s economy and placed the country on a path toward steady growth.
He said “My reforms have stabilised Nigeria’s economy and put it on a path of steady growth.”
The President added that the reforms are creating more opportunities for development across the country.
However, many Nigerians reacted online, with some questioning the impact of the reforms and saying they have yet to experience the positive effects.
Nigerian politician and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said that he is aware many civil servants do not like him.
He shared that he understands why he is unpopular among some civil servants, explaining that funds previously spent on unnecessary conferences are now being redirected to road construction projects.
He said “Some people say conferences for corruption and I say what is that? You are going for conferences to do what? These are ways government funds are being diverted. I say put this money in this road here and the people will get the impact.”
