He called his wife to inform her.he explained, stating she insisted he visit her before going on the exercise.

Omereji said he went back home and was warned by his wife of the dangers in the area due to frequent attacks by terrorists but he wasn’t moved the insecurity problem his wife complained about.

he explained to the congregation.

Here is how The Trent narrated his testimony:

Reluctantly agreeing with his wife and not by means of any personal conviction, Friday decided to visit T.B. Joshua’s renowned church in Lagos, Nigeria before his journey to Gwoza

Arriving in Lagos late on Sunday 17th August 2014, church activities at The SCOAN were about to end. Omereji continued.

Although the service had finished, Friday pleaded with his newly made foreign acquaintance to give him something from the church he could take with him for the journey.

he continued. Arriving back home, Friday’s wife told him to promise her that he would keep the ‘sticker’ which bore the message around his neck next to his ID card at all times during the journey as she didn’t want to end up a widow.

Arriving at the military camp in Gwoza on Monday heavily armed, two days of training exercises were conducted hitch-free. “

According to Omereji, the policemen saw a helicopter hovering over their area on an apparent surveillance mission later on that day. They reported to their seniors but were told not to be alarmed.

It was when the training exercise of that day was concluded and the policemen were back in their lodging that Boko Haram militants struck.

Friday recalled the hellish incident:

He quickly remembered his wife’s words and clutched the Anointing Sticker he kept around his neck. Bullets were raining around him but surprisingly none hit.

The wall was higher than an ordinary jump could reach by human capacity.

However, the danger was far from over. As Friday began to run, he heard the sound of yet more heavy artillery. People to his left and right were collapsing but the policeman kept running. Miraculously, he escaped to safety.

In his comments, T.B. Joshua reiterated his previous assertion that Boko Haram was the challenge of Nigeria and not Ebola. He further warned that infiltration from foreign militants had already occurred within Boko Haram, hence their sophisticated weaponry.
