The deceased, Mrs. Christiana Adetola Oyedepo died at the age of 45 after a sickness that was said to have lasted for about three months.
According to sources, Pastor Jacob Oyedepo works with the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) but there were speculations about his real role as a Pastor in the church.
Although there were speculation that the cleric had attempted to sell the uncompleted property and was concerned that burying the woman on the site would discourage prospective buyers from the property.
The seventeen years old marriage with four children according to Family sources had been rocked by allegations of maltreatment allegedly by the cleric but that the deceased had kept it under wrap to prevent public ridicule.
The deceased was said to be teacher in one of the public schools in the state and had developed the property with loans obtained from a cooperative society and was still servicing the loan when she died.
