Meanwhile, Prophet Oharaemere has said it was only a part of his church that was demolished.
He stated this on his Facebook page.
According to him, “I was beaten up, humiliated by agents of government even though my church did not block the waterways.
“They demolished the fence, the security post, the store house; my church is far away from the designated waterways.
“You can see it here. You can verify yourself. My church is intact. It was not demolished. They only demolished the fence which did not block the waterways too.”
