Anthony Arogunmasa, 29, pastor, has been arrested in Ekiti state for
raping a 19 year old lady during a spiritual cleansing session in his church.
In her statement to the police, the victim alleged the Pastor lured her
into his Araromi Street, Ikere-Ekiti residence under the pretext of giving her
spiritual cleansing.
“I was just meeting the pastor for the first time in my life. He
approached me and told me that I needed some spiritual cleansing. He said that
God instructed him to ensure that the spiritual cleansing was done for me. I
fell for him because I saw people calling him pastor. He took me to his house
and gave me a candle and soap and asked me to start praying. He also brought
out certain objects which he said were prayer items for the spiritual
cleansing. In the course of the prayers, he asked me to remove my clothing and
just tie a wrapper and I obliged. It wasn’t long after that he suddenly jumped
on me and eventually had carnal knowledge of me forcefully.”
Confirming the report, the Ekiti state police PRO said “We have proved
that it is a clear case of rape. We have a medical proof and during our
investigation, we discovered that the victim couldn’t have been a girlfriend
to the suspect as he (pastor) claims. You can imagine that he doesn’t know the
names of the lady, nor where she lives or any of her friends or relations and
he claims to be the lady’s boyfriend. How is that possible?”
