The unspeakable has happened in Osun, a western region in Nigeria, as a pastor ran mad instantly while trying to cast out the spirit of madness from a mad man – what an irony!

People living at Oke-Ado area of Ibadan, Oyo State, as well as shop owners and automobile dealers along Molete road in the town, on Thursday, watched a drama involving a pastor and a mad man.

The pastor, whose name is Timothy, according to an eyewitness, got to Ososami junctions of Oke-Ado around 5.20 p.m and went to meet the mentally-deranged man, popularly known as Tunde, who was sitting in front of a building in the area.

According to Semiu, a shop owner around the spot of the incident, the pastor began to read the Bible on sighting the mad man, while he moved closer to him and laid the hand on his head.

“At a point, there was a hot argument between the duo, which made the pastor to raise his voice as he was offering a deliverance prayer for Tunde, the mad man.

The hot prayer lasted for over 15 minutes before another strange drama began,” Semiu recounted.

Speaking further, another witness, an okada rider (commercial motorcyclist), said at a point, the mad man removed the pastor’s hand from his head, adding that “suddenly, a strange spirit got hold of the pastor and he began to remove his cloth.

He was unclad and laid flat on the ground, speaking a strange language, with foam oozing out of his mouth.”

The mad man, it was gathered, initially left him in this position and sat at some distance away from the pastor, before the duo later sat closer to each other, while onlookers watched the strange drama.

The pastor remained in state of insanity until the Nigerian Tribune left the scene of the incident.

Now this story should serve as a warning to all the young chaps out there who add “Pastor” to the beginning of their names and go out to perform ‘wonders’ just because they have been reading the bible and also seen Pastor Chris blow air and people will fall.

A word is enough for the wise o!
