JUne 20, (THEWILL) – Late Deborah Samuel’s family has cried out, saying life has been difficult for them since Omega Power Ministry (OPM) founder, Chibuzor Chinyere, relocated them to Port Harcourt.
Deborah was an undergraduate student of Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto State, before she was lynched by her schoolmates in the school’s premises on May 12, 2022.
Her lynching sparked outrage and emotions online and shortly afterwards, Chinyere, the general overseer of Omega Power Ministries in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, intervened and helped her family.
“I just watched a video clip where the parents of Deborah Samuel said they will not be sending their children to school again. God forbid”, Chinyere wrote on Facebook on May 16, 2022.
Chinyere allegedly gave them a house, a car and it was also reported that he had helped them to live a better life.
However, the family has stated that they have not been living well.
Two family members, Emmanuel and Alheri, revealed that life has not been rosy ever since the pastor brought them to Port Harcourt.
“People think that we are living well, but we are not. OPM took us from where we were in Niger State to Port Harcourt City last year. The OPM pastor gave us a mini estate with about 14 self-contained apartments.
“After that, OPM rented a bedroom flat for us. He said we should be staying their because we are a family and those self-contained apartments cannot be enough for the family. He furnished the apartment with the appliances.
“The first time we got here, OPM got me a car. It was a Toyota Corolla, but it wasn’t new. It was a fairly used vehicle and the car has developed some faults. I was using it as a taxi before, but it has some challenges and I have parked it”, one of them stated.
