Drama As Uniformed Men Storm Church, Assault Pastor Couple, Spray Tear Gas
According to Ireporter Online, a viral video has sparked widespread outrage after uniformed men allegedly stormed an Assemblies of God church in Ughelli, Delta State, where they reportedly assaulted a pastor and his wife and used tear gas within the church premises.
The incident, which occurred on April 12, 2026, has triggered intense reactions across social media, with Nigerians calling for a thorough investigation and accountability over the use of force in a place of worship.
In the circulating footage, the uniformed men were seen physically confronting the cleric and his wife before allegedly deploying tear gas, an act that forced panic within the church environment. The confrontation ended with the men leaving the premises, while the cause of the incident remains unclear as authorities are yet to issue an official statement.
Eyewitness accounts and online reactions have continued to demand justice, with many condemning what they described as a violation of sacred space and abuse of power. A voice heard in the video appealed for justice as the attackers exited the church compound.
Social media users have also weighed in, with some expressing shock over the incident and questioning the conduct of the operatives involved.
The development has reignited conversations about security operations within civilian and religious spaces, coming months after a similar controversy involving alleged excessive force during a religious gathering in Rivers State in 2025.
Authorities are expected to respond as public pressure continues to mount.
