Pastor's lover dies while terminating pregnancy in Kaduna

A pastor, whose identity was given as Gideon Garba, has been arrested by the police in Kaduna State after a teenage girl he got pregnant was said to have died in the process of abortion.

The married pastor who is fromPlateau State but posted to serve inKaduna, had been dating the girl, whose name was given as Stella, said to be the daughter of a senior pastor in the same church.

Stella is a second year Ordinary National Diploma (OND) student of the Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic in the state and when she got pregnant, Pastor Gimba arranged for her to have an abortion and engaged a friend who works in a hospital.

The 'quack' doctor was said to have given the girl drugs to flush out the pregnancy which was already in the third month but when the foetus could not be flushed out, he gave her some local herbs to drink.

The herbs was said to have reacted violently leading to the girl bleeding profusely. Her parents rushed her to the hospital where doctors confirmed that she had taken drugs meant to terminate a pregnancy and proceeded to evacuate her womb but apparently, the damage had been much.

According to the source, before she gave up the ghost, Stella confessed to her parents that it was Pastor Gimba that got her pregnant and took her to a doctor for the abortion.

Her parents later reported the case to the police and Pastor Gimba and his friend were arrested and are now in detention. Investigations are going on, before they would be charged to court.
