Abel also said the bomb was not meant to kill anyone but to cause a scare among church members and elders. The 57-year-old man, stressed, “It was out of annoyance that I planted the bomb. I was dismissed from the church after serving for 25 years. After planting the bomb, I was not happy with myself. “I had a change of heart and called the people to tell them about it. It was to scare people. I had to call people to check and detonate it. “I had marital issues with my wife. We came to the church to resolve it and it was not resolved. It led to my dismissal. I was very bitter about the dismissal. I do not have the intention of killing people.”
