  • The Ogun State Government has warned an Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG) against interfering with a land grabbing prosecution.
  • The government specifically cited AIG Enyinnaya Adiogu of the Force Intelligence Department, Abuja, for allegedly conducting a parallel investigation.
  • The case involves the World Mission Agency (WMA), which owns Living Faith Church Worldwide in Sango-Ota.

The Ogun State Government has issued a stern warning to Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG) Enyinnaya Adiogu, who is attached to the Force Intelligence Department in Abuja. The government has cautioned Adiogu to cease what it describes as interference in an ongoing land grabbing prosecution case.

The prosecution involves the World Mission Agency (WMA), identified as the owner of Living Faith Church Worldwide in Sango-Ota. The Ogun State government alleges that AIG Adiogu has been conducting a parallel investigation into the matter, which they view as an obstruction of the established legal process.

This intervention by the state government highlights a potential conflict between law enforcement agencies and judicial proceedings. The warning underscores the government's commitment to ensuring the integrity of the prosecution and preventing any external influence that could compromise the case.
