A pastor has stirred debate after threatening criminal action while promising a ₦100,000 reward to whoever returns his missing phone during a recent church programme.
Speaking from the pulpit, the pastor identified the device as “an iPhone 14 Pro Max” and said his photo was set as the lock screen. He offered a cash reward for its return but warned that if security services became involved the finder would face severe consequences.
“If you find my phone, it’s an iPhone 14 pro max, my picture is on the screen, I will give you ₦100k. They stole it after I finished ministering but let’s assume it wasn’t stolen, the person found it for me. But if it becomes a case where DSS tracks it, I will use all my resources to send the person to prison. The person will visit prison and come back,” the pastor said.
The remarks — which mix a public reward with an explicit threat to pursue criminal p¥nishment — have the potential to raise questions about proportionality and the involvement of national security agencies in what may be a routine theft or misplaced property case.
