Cases of child rape and molestation continue to be on the rise not just in Nigeria, but in several parts of the world as well. The truth is, whether in Nigeria or anywhere else in the world; the girl child is being abused every day. Here is a short account of a pastor who confessed to luring a 13-year old girl into her room and raping her…
“I had been into evangelism for some years now and I have been casting out demons from people who have spiritual and family problems before I met this young girl through her father, Mr. Martins Ijiwo.
“I have been a friend of the family for quite some time.
“I used my anointing oil to lure her into my room and all of a sudden, I was carried away and before I knew what was happening, I saw myself making love to her.”
Sigh… I wonder what our world is gradually turning into as people we trust to preach and teach the truth to our children have now turned into ravenous beats; ravaging our daughters at will.
Read what the Nasarawa State Police Command had to say about the action of the pastor, who committed the act in the Karu Local Government Area of the state.
“The pastor took advantage of his closeness to the girl’s family – who are members of his congregation – to rape their 13-year-old daughter under the guise of casting out demons from her.”
According to the Punch, the pastor whose name was given as Ifeanyi Bernard blamed the rape incident on the handiwork of the devil.
Christians should cultivate the habit of constant prayer. Some of these deliverance sessions can be handled only if some parents can learn to pray and fast on their own… abi una no believe me?
