COZA: Nigerians React As Pastor Fatoyinbo Returns To Pulpit

Nigerians have expressed mixed reactions over the return of the Senior Pastor of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo to the pulpit.

Naija News recalls that celebrity photographer and wife of singer Timi Dakolo, Busola, had accused Fatoyinbo of raping her 20 years ago.

This led to protest calling on the popular pastor to step down from the pulpit and allow proper investigation.

In a post on Instagram, the COZA pastor announced that he will be stepping down from the pulpit.

However, Pastor Fatoyinbo on Sunday returned to the pulpit despite the rape saga still ongoing.

My advice to #COZA Pastor: Beyond what people say or feel or tweet, you must know you are accountable to God. If these allegations are true, trying to muscle your way through it only fills the cup of retribution. Not because God is not merciful, but because the enemy seeks…

I hope the Same Pastors that advised he stepped down till issues raised were addressed will also speak out and explain this

Has he been cleared?

Or was the stepping down just a PR strateg#COZA
