'Nigerians, please forgive my son, Evans' - Father begs (Video)

The father of the infamous kidnapper, Evans, wants Nigerians to forgive his son and take him for deliverance at TB Joshua's church.

Evans' father, Stephen Onwuamadike beg Nigerians to forgive him

Speaking in an interview with Channels TV, the Nnewi, Anambra State-born businessman openly pleaded for his son to be forgiven for his atrocities and instead take him to the founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet TB Joshua, for deliverance.

The older Onwuamadike who has insisted that his son was being manipulated spiritually by his mother, added that it was not Evans that committed the heinous crimes being linked to him but that something inside of him must have been responsible.

He begged that he should be given a second chance and allowed to turn a new leaf and become closer to God.

“I’m still pleading with Nigerians, everybody he offended, that they should forgive him. Life is very very important. Once they have life, there is hope. I have said it earlier, let them take him to T.B Joshua.

I was in T.B Joshua in 2012, he said that if you see any criminal, that you should bring that person so that when he gets his deliverance, he will know himself.

It is something inside him that is messing up, not that person. I was telling God to forgive him. It’s a very big shame to me hearing this name,” he said.

Pa Onwuamadike had earlier dissociated himself from the accusation by his son that he took to crime after the father abandoned him and chased him out of the house and had then told reporters that it was Evans' mother who manipulated him and turned him into a criminal.
