Meanwhile the case has been transferred from Lugbe Police Station to the State Criminal Investigations and Intelligence.
The source said, “He was brought home because he insisted that he did not kill his wife, swearing that his late wife was seriously sick and he took her to several hospitals including Gwagwalada general hospital and Federal Medical Centre for treatment.
“He was taken home to provide evidence of all that he claimed happened”.
FCT Police Spokesperson, DSP Josephine Adeh confirmed that the Police took Pastor Nwachukwu to his house for a search as part of investigation.
