A Nigerian pastor, Biodun Fatoyinbo, who is at the centre of a rape allegation, which he denies, says he’s taking a “leave of absence from the pulpit of the church”.
In a video circulating on social media, Pastor Fatoyinbo was accused by a woman of raping her twice before she turned 18. He has said that he was “absolutely innocent”.
In a statement on Instagram released on Monday he said he has spoken to Christian leaders around the world and he has now decided to step aside temporarily.
