The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has condemned the act of rape, saying it doesn’t matter who is involved.
“It is ungodly, wicked, and reprehensible”, a statement issued on Sunday by Pastor Adebayo Oladeji, Special Assistant (Media & Communications) to the CAN President, His Eminence, Rev Dr Samson Ayokunle, said.
It, however, stated that regarding the recent allegations against the Founder of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo, it is yet to get details of the matter, other than news from social media.
According to organisation such information “is not reliable or credible evidence enough to jump into a conclusion”.
It further stated that the CAN Leadership has reached out to the leadership of the block which the Pastor in question belongs, with a view to getting to the root of the matter.
“This will help us to make the right decision on the issue,” the statement read.
Pastor Fatoyinbo recently came under fire following allegations of rape by Busola Dakolo, photographer and wife of talented Musician, Timi Dakolo – the most recent in series of allegations in the past.
In a recent interview, she accused the pastor of raping her when she was a teenager – a story that has resulted in several groups of supporters calling for him to step down and be investigated.
