A pastor has offered free accommodation and scholarships to the relatives of Deborah Samuel who was lynched in Sokoto State on Thursday.
Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere made the offer after seeing an interview where Deborah’s parents said they would pull the rest of their children out of school.
The pastor also promised to get a job for Deborah’s father and set up a business for her mother.
“I just watched a video clip where the parents of Deborah Samuel said they will not be sending their children to school again. GOD FORBID,” Apostle Chinyere wrote on his verified Facebook page.

Killed by Islamist Mob

Two suspects, arrested after her lynching, appeared in court on Monday.
Apostle Chinyere the Philanthropist
Pastor Chinyere is a known philanthropist in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where he leads the Omega Power Ministry (OPM).
The ministry’s OPM Foundation has awarded international scholarships to indigent students and taken children off the streets.
In March, Apostle Chinyere promised to award scholarships to two young men who were sacked after their dancing video at a quick-service restaurant (QSR) went viral.
The “happie boys” were door men at the QSR in Abia State.
