UK-based Nigerian pastor reportedly arrested at Lagos airport

Men of the Department of State Service (DSS) have reportedly apprehended the founder of the RIG Nation and Pioneer Church, UK, Apostle Tomi Arayomi.

This was revealed by the twin brother of the cleric, Tobi Arayomi via his Instagram handle @tobiarayomi, around 12pm.

Tobi said that the men of the DSS arrested the cleric over alleged politics-related prophecies he revealed.

He said, “Hello everybody, I need your help. I just received news that my brother has been detained by the Department of State Services, DSS in Nigeria. He has been arrested for political reasons, my brother and his wife, Tema.

“He just arrived in Lagos and they detained him at the airport. He is politically targeted because some of his prophetic words have troubled the government in Nigeria.”

The Informant247 observes that the cleric had been making revelations and prophesies about the 2023 general elections.

When contacted for confirmation, the spokesperson of the DSS, Peter Afunnaya replied: “Why don’t you call the Pastor, pls.”

Afunnaya said rather than listening to third party’s account of the incident, the pastor should be directly communicated instead.

He said: “and not conclude with what a third party said or told you.”

Tobi a few minutes after posted an image of his brother and his wife on Instagram, announcing their freedom.

Tobi stated, “@tomiarayomi and @tahmar.india are out. Thank you all for your prayers.”
