‘I was a notorious armed robber at 14 years before Jesus arrested me’ —Odumeje

Controversial preacher, Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere Odumeje, popularly known as Indabosky, has confessed to being an armed robber and a thug at the tender age of 14 before he became a born again Christian.

The Onitsha, Anambra State-based cleric who opened up about his past lifestyle in a trending video on social media on Thursday, revealed that he lived a reckless life as he grew up in a dangerous street in Onitsha.

Addressing his congregation, Indabosky said he became involved in armed robbery and terrorism at a very young age but was saved by the prayers of his mother who led him to Christ and helped him find salvation.

“I was born in Onitsha city. No 3, Nnewi street. And I grew up in a dangerous street. I became an armed robber at the age of 14,” the cleric said.

“I became a terrorist until Jesus Christ arrest me through the help of my mother to change my life… a destroyer become a saviour.”

Odumeje has always found a way of getting in the news, mostly for controversial reasons, especially with his unorthodox practices and miracles which many believe are sometimes fake and stage-managed.
