Odumeje disclosed that he grew up on a dangerous street in the Onitsha area of Anambra State.
“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.
“I became a terrorist. Until Jesus Christ arrested me through the help of my mother to change my life. And a destroyer became a saviour,” he said.
Known for his controversial statements, Odumeje recently made headlines in September when he threatened to harm his critics, saying, “I don’t call the police for enemies.”
Odumeje is known for his controversial style of preaching, dramatic deliverance sessions, and public statements, and has built a reputation as a charismatic figure in Nigeria’s religious landscape.
He is often referred to as ‘The Lion Himself’ and ‘The Indaboski Bahose,’ terms he uses to describe himself.
