A day after the Christian Association of Nigeria said it would investigate the allegation of rape against Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of COZA church, another body has reacted to the issue.
The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria(PFN), which said Fatoyinbo was not a member of the body, read out the Riot’s Act to pastors in the pentecostal fold.
It, however, said the alleged incident was antithetical to the tenets of Christianity.
According to Dr. Felix Omobude, who is the PFN President, the body was shocked at the allegations that are criminal in nature.
He added in a statement, “We strongly condemn this ignoble conduct as alleged against Pastor Fatoyinbo.
“Our prayers, thoughts and support are with all those who have fallen victim as have been reported.
“PFN strongly believes in the pursuit of truth and will ensure that truth is unveiled in this whole matter and appropriate sanctions served.
“The PFN hereby warns Pentecostal Pastors who feel they can live carelessly and take undue advantage of their congregants that PFN will not shield anyone who crosses the line.
“The PFN calls on all concerned while expressing their views over this sad issue, to be peaceful and have some respect for the Kingdom.”
