Narrating how it all happened, a relative of the Pastor said: “The incident happened last month. The man was 30 years old at the time of his death. His girlfriend, whom he had intended to get married to, disappointed him after seeing her through the university.
“He jumped down from a two-storey building and died. I am surprised that a man of this age and a Pastor can do this.”
