Protest, counter-protest hold at COZA in Abuja, Lagos over rape allegations [Photos]
Members of the #ChurchToo movement on Sunday stormed the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) in Lagos and Abuja to protest against the Senior Pastor of the church, Biodun Fatoyinbo over rape allegations levelled against him.
Some of the protesters carried placards with different inscriptions like “Rape is a Crime, 2/3 witnesses, truth is established”, “Rape is a sin and a crime,” “Injustice to one is injustice to all,” “No to sexual abuse in the church,”
Meanwhile, as the protest was ongoing, another group of protesters was also seen at the church in Abuja, marching in solidarity with the embattled pastor.
About an hour into the protest by #ChurchToo, the pro-Fatoyinbo group emerged with handwritten placards that read ‘We love Pastor Fatoyinbo’ and ‘Biodun is a great man,’ among others.
The members, who were said to be labourers working near the church, were allegedly paid N10,000 each by an unidentified church member.
