Nigerians are mobilising to stage a #ChurchToo protest against Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of the Common Wealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) over the recent rape allegation against him.
Organisers have been sharing flyers on social media urging Nigerians to converge for a protest at the church’s premises in Abuja on Sunday at 8 am.
Pastor Biodun has been accused by Busola Dakolo, wife of singer, Timi Dakolo, of raping her when she was 17 and working as a member of the choir in his church.
But the pastor has denied the allegations and threatened to file legal suit against his accusers.
According to the flyer, the protest is against all supposed men of God who ‘hide under the church to commit atriocities’.
“If you are outraged by the alleged sexual abuses perpetrated by pastors and so-called ‘men of God’, join us for a protest march to COZA Church Abuja,” the flyer reads.
Reactions have continued to trail the proposed protest with some Twitter users supporting and signing up for the protest as others kick against it.
