COZA: Alibaba Slams Prominent Pastors For Keeping Silent About Rape Allegations
Prominent Nigerian comedian and social commentator, Alibaba has weighed in on the trending issue of a rape allegation made by Busola Dakolo against the senior global pastor of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo.
The allegations have generated mixed reactions from many Nigerians as people take divided positions on the isse. While some Nigerians believe that the pastor is guilty, some others are of the opinion that Dakolo who is the wife of singer, Timi Dakolo has a lopsided story that does not add up.
In his reaction to the story, the veteran entertainer, Alibaba has called out prominent Nigerian clerics for keeping mute on the rape allegations.
Sharing the image below, he captioned,
When it comes to preaching against what members of the congregations are doing wrong, its in Vol 1, 2 and 3.
_
Fornication, smoking, indecent dressing, drinking, night clubbing, polygamy, divorce, robbery, domestic violence, terrorism, being stingy, racism, corruption, greed, homosexuality, adultery, mixing with bad gang… _
But touch, not the Lord’s anointed and do my profits no harm.
It would be recalled that prior to Dakolo coming out in public to lay her allegations, her husband, has also slammed the pastor for rape and encouraged other alleged victims to come out and share their truth.
It is also noteworthy that back in 2009, Ese Walters, a former member of COZA also came forward to lay rape allegations against the pastor. In the wake of the new scandal, however, she has said she would like not to be dragged into it as she has played the victim role for so long and she has since moved on from that spot.
On her part, Modele Fatoyinbo, the wife of the embattled pastor has come to the defense of her husband saying that her husband is not capable of raping any woman.
