In typical Pastoral and Christian fashion, he refused to actually pick a side saying that the four things he hoped will happen will be the truth, justice, healing and restoration for the parties involved.
He said “as Christians, it is only appropriate for us to seek for truth, justice, healing, and restoration for all involved. The Bible instructs us to do this with humility (Galatians 6:1).” He boldly stated that he sees the accusations to be very serious allegations and that he says NO to rape.
He said that he prayed for God’s peace for Busola and her family and that despite the fact that the allegations have been refuted, he hoped that “there will be a process, legal or counseling, to establish the truth in these circumstances.”
He then urged all Nigerians to “pray for peace and strength for everyone hurting in this process, for the families of the accusers and the accused, and the Church.”
It seems that with the recent developments the body of Christ in Nigeria is refusing to remain silent about this issue and have started to make statements about it.
