All you need to know about Pastor Chukwuemeka Odumeje-Indabosky(The lion himself)
Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere alias Odumeje ‘The Lion’ (born September 9) is an Anambra-based controversial and radical Nigerian pastor, prophet, founder and the president of Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry inc., a.k.a the Land of Freedom, situated in Onitsha, Anambra, South East, Nigeria. Emeka Odumeje has often been criticized and is always in the news for very wrong reasons, owing to his lifestyle, healing, and deliverance approach which majorly involves slamming or throwing people on empty chairs like WWE superstars would their opponents.
Ohanaemere is the 3rd in the family of six children. He was born into the family of Mr. and Mrs. Pius Ohanaemere of Orsu Ihete Ukwa, in Orlu Local Government Area of Imo State, South East of Nigeria.
He is a passionate lover of music and football so much that he aspired to be either a musical or football legend.
He proceeded to Providence Secondary School after his nursery and primary education at Nweje, in a town in Anambra. He had wanted to further his educational career but could not as a result of financial difficulty being faced by his mother who was a mere petty trader at Upper Iweka, Lagos park. Ohanaemere resorted to leather business, where he served as an apprentice.
While struggling to survive, his mother had a vision of his son becoming a great prophet of God, a course she relentlessly backed up with prayers and fasting, for the divine arrest of her son.
Shortly after, Ohanaemere became a laughing stock among his peers after the story of his revelation got to them.
In the year 2000, he quit the leather business, which he had been doing for evangelism and launched out into full ministerial work. Despite going into full ministerial work, he found life difficult as his mother remained his financial strength.
