Gbenga Filani, a Pastor of Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) has allegedly raped a pregnant teenager in Ondo State, Southwest Nigeria.
Gatekeepers News reports that the Ondo State Police Command has arrested a Pastor of Celestial Church of Christ (CCC), Gbenga Filani, for allegedly raping a 19-year old pregnant girl.
Filani reportedly committed the crime when the victim simply identified as Bukola visited the church for deliverance.
Bukola, who spoke to reporters in the state capital, Akure, alleged that Filani used his manhood to rub anointing oil on the private part of the victim.
She stated that he used anointing oil to rub her private part before he dipped his manhood inside her.
According to her, the pastor repeatedly inserted his middle finger inside her private part when he was praying for her inside the church premises.
Bukola added that she cried out even though the pastor told her she would die if she did so.
She said, “In the morning, I went to hospital to register. We usually have programme every Wednesday. On that faithful day, I went to church but unfortunately, they had ended the service.
“He collected the list they gave me from the hospital. He said the items in the list given to me were too much.
“He said I should take it to the altar. While sitting down, he started pressing my stomach. He asked me how many months was my pregnancy? I said it was five months.
“He said that he was going to do some spiritual work me for before my delivery. He called me into a room and asked me to lie down. He asked me to remove my clothes and I should open my legs, I did so.
“He dipped his middle finger with oil on my private part. He said my baby was vertical instead of being horizontal. He said he would put oil in my private part and would help me insert it with his private part so that the oil would get into the baby.
“He rubbed oil on his private part and asked me to open my legs. He now had sex with me. He said he did not suppose to do it but helped me because my husband was not around.
“It was later after he had sex with me that I came to my right senses. He said I should swear that I would not tell anyone including my mother. He said I would die if I should tell anybody.
“He did not put on his garment when we had the sex. When he was having sex with me, he gave me one small cross that I should put it on my navel.
“He also gave me table water and poured perfume inside it. He also asked me to drink little out the water and prayed for me. He said that I should be using it and that the baby would turn to normal position within three days.
“I was seriously panicking. I later told my mother about the whole thing and since the day he had sex with me, the baby was not kicking again.”
Meanwhile, the Ondo Police spokesman, Fumilayo Odunlami, said an investigation had commenced into the incident.
