An evangelist is in hot water after telling people he knows of a doorway leading to paradise that he can show them for a price in south-western Nigeria.
One of Pastor Ade Abraham's followers reported him to the police, alleging that the pastor had charged him 310,000 nairass ($750; £600) to visit the said site in Araromi-Ugbeshi, Ekiti state.
The clergyman agreed to assert heaven's gate to the BBC, stating "the God he serves" revealed it to him to test his church members' faith, but claims he has not been paid.

Pastor Ade Abraham's church began in Kogi, then Kaduna, before traveling south with his followers to a camp he created in Ekiti.
The parishioner who reported him to the police has returned to Kaduna state, but his wife refused to accompany him, claiming that the "rapture" was approaching.
The pair, who did not want to be identified, told the BBC that they talk on the phone every day.
Pastor Ade, also known as Noah Abraham, recently went viral with a video in which he requested followers to tell their relatives in other countries to donate to his church.
