The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) are receiving a series of backlash after visiting the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) and pledging their support for Biodun Fatoyinbo in the midst of the rape allegations by Busola Dakolo.

Rev Dr Samson Jonah, CAN Chairman in the FCT, and Israel Akanji, who is the leader of CAN, Northcentral, addressed the congregation.

Speaking during the service, the clergymen said they were impressed by the church and have been greatly blessed by the church, they also said the church supports and stands by Biodun Fatoyinbo.

They will continue praying for him and they hope ‘the gates of hell that not prevail’ and he comes out victorious from the rape allegations case, they said.

Here’s how some Nigerians reacted on Twitter:

Last month according to CAN, CAN cannot take a stand condemning Biodun Fatoyinbo, but today it is clear CAN indeed can stand in solidarity with the rapist.
CAN lead us to believe that CAN cannot, but today we know CAN can.

Busola did not take on the church, she took on Biodun Fatoyinbo. If the church decides to protect him, then they are covering for a rapist. Rape is not a fruit of the spirit, it has no place in the church

1. Biodun Fatoyinbo is not openly admitting to the rape because he fears the huge public outrage.
2. CAN is already blackmailing the Dakolo family into “forgiveness”, that highly suggests he already secretly confessed and they know he did it.
We are watching a cover-up unfold.

Na was for Christianity in Nigeria!
Even Jesus won’t be proud of CAN right now in heaven.
So can is just a mere joke.
I just pray we will make heaven and that God will heal Busola Dakolo of all her pains and forgive Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo. Amen
