Johnson, who claimed to be a pastor at one popular Pentecostal Church in the state, was mobbed for allegedly hawking fried meat and fetish items in bag.

The Nation gathered the pastor was begging the people to come and eat with him.

The action was said to have aroused curiosity on the part of the people ‎who immediately apprehended him.

It was further gathered that, while some suggest instant judgement for him on the basis of his action others pleaded that he should be taking to the Deji of Akure’s palace to explain his mission with the meat.

But Johnson told the crowd that he has just been transferred to Ipogun branch of the church from Iju/Ita-Ogbolu and he was directed to do this by the Holy Spirit.

At the palace, security agents fought hard to prevent an already converged crowd from lynching Johnson as he recounted his mission in Yoruba while being quizzed by place chiefs.
While explaining what led him to the action, Johnson said he was divinely instructed to go and share the meat to save his dying son.

‎He appealed to the people to allowed him to go and continue what he called his end time mission based on revelation from God.
