A man identified as Festus James has been arrested by men of the Ondo State Police Command for allegedly raping an eight-month pregnant woman in Agbabu village, Odigbo Local Government Area of Ondo state.

The suspect, who claimed to be a pastor and on a three-day revival to the community from Ibadan, Oyo State, was said to have raped the woman under the guise of performing deliverance on her.

Parading the suspect at the command headquarters in Akure, on Thursday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Funmilayo Odunlami, said the victim reported the matter to the police in the town.

“On the 13th November, 2021, one Festus James ‘m’ from Ibadan in Oyo State went to Agbabu village via Ore, claiming to be a prophet and that the Holy Spirit directed him to have a three days’ Holy Ghost Revival in a church in the village.

“The next day, the prophet claimed to have seen a vision concerning a 22 years old lady who was eight months pregnant and told her to wait behind after the programme. He took the pregnant lady into one of the rooms in the mission house under the guise of delivering her from an evil spirit and had carnal knowledge of her.

“The suspect confessed to the committing of the crime.”

Speaking with journalists, the prophet said though he had sex with the woman, he did not rape her.

He said he did not know what came over him when he was carrying out the nefarious act.

He should be referred to a man or a guy.

This one no be pastor

People are always quick to blame every evil on God but they always seem to forget that their decisions were solely theirs to make . I just pray that the victim doesn't become traumatized and start hating God after this sad incident

Nawaaaah

Someone shud tell me why they havn't worn this man necklace made from fuel-soaked tyres

The devil used him

Deliverance goes wrong. What a pity?

Remove his Manhood

Ungodliness do bring shame

The appearance alone is disgusting

Religious bandit

As soon as I heard rape, I already knew where the news would emanate from. Skull mining>rape>thuggery>bank robbery>afonja.

Stop calling him pastor rather call him bastard

Work of God don suffer. Everyone is claiming to be a pastor, even a spiritualists, rapists and fraudsters.

It seems like the devil is not chained in that part of the world...........

It was the evil spirit he was trying to cast out that possessed him yeye man

Lol. You know even one single Afonja in the universe called Festus? Yorubas really need to check their "accommodation" credential if even only for the purpose of checking 'imported' crime and deviancy from non-Yorubas in the SW.

The title of Pastor is the most abused. If may ask, what is the name of his church?
In my biz dealings, I'm always doubly careful of people who eagerly introduce themselves as pastors.

End time preacher

Rape in that state

Just like everyone would've shouted flattie if the news was about drug without checking if the Amaechi involved is from Imo state or from Rivers state. As far Festus was in Ondo state, he is an afonja, fullstop.

H

A man that can rape a pregnant woman can do anything and is heartless like those saying nobody was killed at lekki tollgate

I wonder if some of you have proper adult lives where you are required to take responsible decisions and actions given the very childish and upside down way you reason.

Now I know I've been wasting my precious time with a fool. Please I'll excuse myself now. Thank you.

The woman was in a very good position to stop the man,but failed due to her ignorance of the word of God.However,we must understand that this is evil programme from pit of hell.

Our own Nairaland Pastor Righteousness won't do that.

I knew it would be one ugly looking man.

Nigeria has a greater number of mentally disturbed people than normal ones.
