Member to sue Christ Embassy for assault, breach of contract

office right behind me. When I attempted to open the door to enter his office, one of the pastors who was listening to our conversation, Pastor Ayo pushed me from the door and I fell thunderously to the ground.
“My staff, Daniel, confronted the pastor and asked him why he should push me that way requesting to know if he wanted to kill me. At this point, Pastor Dave ordered his colleague Pastor Ayo and the security men to throw us out of the Church premises.
“The Pastor pounced on Daniel aided by some other pastors and staff of the Church who came out in droves to beat him up. I received my pound of beating when I attempted to rescue Daniel whom six ordained pastors of Christ Embassy and security held down and threatened to murder. At this point, two security men were in possession of firearms while one of the pastors continually poured a white substance suspected to be a tranquilizer on his face to subdue him.  This they did with all enthusiasm and recklessness.”
Speaking further, the battered woman averred that while screaming for help in the middle of an estimated 20-man mob squad, a female member was also beating her repeatedly.
“My Production Manager, Ms Ayo and an Abuja Church member, Sister Nonye who recognised me, helped to rescue me from the monster squad. In an attempt to record the incident, one of them grabbed my phone and smashed it on the ground beyond repairs.
“I headed for the Alausa Police station where I made a formal complaint,”   said U-cheena amid sobs.
At the Alausa Police Station, she was subsequently given a letter to go to the hospital where she was treated.
U-cheena added that the CSO to Pastor Oyakhilome, Deacon IK came with Pastor Dave to give his statement along with one of Pastor Oyakhilome’s squad, Pastor Ayo who assaulted her and her staff. They were eventually detained alongside some of the pastors involved in the assault.
U-cheena, who is a fulltime member of Christ Embassy, has vowed to press charges until she gets justice before a court of competent jurisdiction.
