Playing Jesus? Nigerian Pastor Drowns After Being Thrown Off Boat For Praying

                     According to Sky News, a Nigerian pastor and about nine other people migrating to Spain for a better life were allegedly thrown
overboard after he was blamed for the worsening weather conditions.
                    Two Cameroonian migrants who were in the boat have been arrested by Spanish police following accusations that they threw up to ten Nigerians overboard,


                    Reports say, after hitting bad weather, the pastor – one of around 50 sub-Saharan African migrants making the journey in an inflatable boat – began to pray that they would not sink, some of his fellow Nigerian migrants joined him in prayers with him.

Some survivors say the Cameroonian men accused the pastor of causing the stormy weather and then pushed him and the others praying overboard.

When they arrived in Spain, the survivors appeared afraid of the two Cameroonians, arousing the suspicions of officials.

A statement from the Spanish police, shared on The West Australian, says that "the detainees blamed the bad weather on the Nigerians who were praying and used the boards that covered the bottom of the boat to assault and throw overboard the pastor and the other Nigerian passengers." 
The 50 migrants departed from northern Morocco on December 3, in an inflatable boat without a motor. They were hoping to make the nine-mile journey across the Strait of Gibraltar to Spain. 
The boat was found adrift off the coast of Almeria, southern Spain, two days later by Spanish coast guard officials. There were 29 survivors, including a three-year-old child. The rest of the passengers who did not survive "perished due to the rough conditions of these types of voyages," say police.
