Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere (born 9 September 1982), predominantly known as Odumeje or Indaboski or Ndaboski, is a wealthy controversial Nigerian clergyman and general overseer of The Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry who is noted for his unorthodox methods of healing and exorcism of supposedly demon-possessed individuals.

Early life:
Odumeje was born in Imo State, Nigeria into a family of six children and was the third born child. He had very limited formal education as he dropped out of school at an early age and cited "financial constraints" as the root cause. Prior to becoming a clergyman, he relocated to Anambra State in search of a better life, where he established a business as a struggling leather designer, a profession he would eventually abandon to establish a church.

Controversies:
Unorthodox methods of healing
Odumeje's methods of healing attracts negative criticism as it often involves the arrangement of multiple chairs and slamming the individual in need of healing on the chairs and after doing so, declared them totally healed. Odumeje's methods of healing earned him the title; "The wrestling pastor"

Allegations of stage managing miracles by Ada Jesus:
Odumeje had a feud with a former female associate of his referred to as Ada Jesus who accused him of being a false prophet and a charlatan who stage managed miracles with the help of Nigerian veteran actress, Rita Edochie, who helped by providing him individuals willing to feign ailments for a fee. Odumeje proceeded to lay curses on her and declared she would be inflicted with an incurable disease, coincidentally, she became terribly ill with a kidney related ailment which caused her to be completely paralyzed and caused her to lose her ability of speech. Her condition defied medical science as medical professionals could not explain why despite their efforts to treat her, her health condition continued to deteriorate. As a last resort the family of Ada Jesus, brought her in her bedridden state to the church of Odumeje and pleaded on her behalf that he reverses the curses he placed on her. Odumeje vehemently refused and stated that he would never forgive her and stated that he'd ensure she'd be paralyzed for life whilst Rita Edochie stated that she would never get well and would die prematurely from that illness. Odumeje also stated that he'd ensure the same fate befalls all members of her family. On 11 April 2021, Rita Edochie forgave her and Odumeje also forgave her on 17 April 2021 and donated ₦1 million for her treatment which Ada Jesus's mother openly rejected. Ada Jesus died on 21 April 2021.

Unorthodox method of conducting a church service:
Odumeje's church services include the singing of secular Nigerian music which contains profanities and illicit content which aren't compatible with conventional Christian doctrines and conducts. Odumeje's church services also incorporates the abuse of the Nigerian naira as he sprays money and proceeds to step on it, this drew an inordinate amount of criticism so much so that the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria called for his arrest in 2020.

Alleged relationship to Eddy Nawgu
His marriage to his wife was controversial because Nigerian media outlets published articles which claimed that he was married to the daughter of Eddy Nawgu and whatever spiritual powers Odumeje had, he learnt and acquired by studying the clandestine personal journal of Eddy Nawgu who was an infamous black magician prior his public execution. Odumeje ferociously denied this and called it a malicious and deliberate attempt to tarnish his image.
