The Founder and General Overseer of Omega Power Ministry (OPM), Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere, has announced the banishment of a man from his community for 10 years over allegations that he impregnated his biological daughter.
The cleric disclosed this in a Facebook post on Thursday, November 12, 2026, explaining that the decision followed an investigation which allegedly established that the man fathered a child with his daughter.
Chinyere said he was unhappy about sending the man away from the community but maintained that he had no other option following the discovery.
However, the pastor expressed greater concern about the future of the pregnant daughter and the child, particularly the circumstances surrounding the child’s parentage and possible social stigma.
He also declared that abortion was not an option, insisting that the young woman would have to give birth to the baby.
In his post, the cleric questioned how the child would cope with growing up knowing that his or her biological father was also his or her maternal grandfather.
He wrote:
“With a heavy heart this morning, 12 November 2026, I banished a man from our community for 10 years.
“I’m not happy to send a man out of his community for 10 years, but I’m left with no choice.
“But that is not my main worry. My main worry is this. After investigation, it was confirmed he is the one that impregnated his own biological daughter.
“My major worry is number one, abortion is a NO NO. She can’t commit abortion.
“Option 2: What is the fate of the child when he or she grows up? YOUR GRANDFATHER IS ALSO YOUR FATHER. How does that sound? How will the community look at that child, because everyone in the community knows this story.”
The cleric further disclosed that he had taken responsibility for the welfare and education of the man’s other children following his banishment.
According to him, he would provide monthly financial support for the children to ensure that they continued receiving food and education despite their father’s absence.
He added:
“Meanwhile, the feeding and schooling of his children has been taken over by me.
“I will be sending monthly money for his children’s upkeep as their father is out of the community. VERY SAD SITUATION.”
The disclosure has raised concerns about incest, sexual abuse within families, the welfare of victims and the challenges children born out of such circumstances may face.
