Buhari’s aide Tolu Ogunlesi and Oby Ezekwesili react to rape allegation against Pastor Fatoyinbo

President Buhari’s aide, Tolu Ogunlesi and former Presidential candidate Oby Ezekwesili, have both reacted to the rape allegation against Pastor Fatoyinbo.

While Tolu Ogunlesi revealed that his 2013 article ‘Touch Not My Anointed’ was inspired by the rape acts allegedly perpetrated by Pastor Fatoyinbo, Oby Ezekwesili who also reacted called on the Police and Public Prosecution to take the lead to seek justice for victims and signal deterrent.

Tolu who also took a swipe at Lere Olayinka for saying the Pastor Fatoyinbo had consensual sex with Busola Dakolo, stated that the story within COZA will be that the devil attacked the church. He tweeted;

This appears to be a horrific and longstanding pattern of sexual abuse and rape. These allegations must not be allowed to go un-investigated, the way Ese Walters’ allegations were treated. Time also for COZA Board (if any) to step up – but that’s admittedly very unlikely. This appears to be a horrific and longstanding pattern of sexual abuse and rape.

The story within COZA will be that this is an attack by the Devil, targeted at an anointed man of God, and which must be resisted. On account of this 99% of church members are going to take their Pastor’s side, by default. You can already see their arguments (and attacks) online. As the grey hairs upon thine head are plenty so is the foolishness inside. Stick to abusing Buhari and leave this alone, Lere.

Oby Ezekwesili on the other hand tweeted;

I have just read @YNaija interview with Mrs Busola Dakolo on her former Pastor, Pastor Fatoyinbo of COZA. What I read is too horrific an experience. I pray Healing. Rape is a scourge we must all fight. I’d advise the Pastor to quickly respond to her weighty charges. Quickly.

It is daily evident that our country does have a Rape Epidemic problem. It must be tackled swiftly. The Police & Public Prosecution must take the lead to seek Justice for victims&signal deterrent. Thanks to @ProjectalertVaw @MirabelCentreNG@StandtoEndRape for the heavy lifting
