The snake is said to have entered the church through the back door. 

The church members who were sitting at the back were heard making noise and made unnecessary movement causing interruption.

One of the followers took a wooden chair and knocked it hard on the head several times till it was dead.

Members at the back told the preacher that it was a snake and they did not know where it had come from.

The pastor told them it was a sign of sins and that the church needed to highly repent.

“This is a sign of impunity and prolonged sinning. As a church we need to pray and repent," said the pastor.

The snake was later taken out of the church and burned.
