Police have arrested Pastor Ezekiel Odero of New Life Prayer Center and Church over reports of deaths occurring at his premises in Mavueni, Kilifi County.

Coast regional Commissioner Rhodah Onyanche says that they have also shut down the New Life Prayer center and Church and cleared out everyone at the center.

“This morning we have arrested Pastor Ezekiel Ombok Odero of the New Life Prayer Center Church in Mavueni in Kilifi County on allegations of the deaths that have been occurring at his premises and reported in various institutions.

“We’ve also taken action and closed down the prayer center going forward, so we are urging and giving information to the public that that prayer center has been closed down and whatever was in there has been cleared out,” said Onyancha.

Odero escorted to station

Videos show him being taken into custody clad in a white robe and a bible in his left arm.

He however refused to take in questions from journalists who caught up with him at the police station.

Onyancha in a media briefing stated that Pastor Odero will be interrogated in Mombasa.

“He is being brought to Mombasa and as time goes by we will give you progress of investigations,” she said.

Pastor Odero is also accused of being linked to Pastor Paul Mackenzie who is being accused of leading a cult that led to the death of 98 people.

The 98 bodies have been dug from the mass graves after investigations were launched last week.
