CAN’s acting General-Secretary, Joseph Daramola, in a statement released in Abuja, on Sunday, appealed to both parties to sheath their swords and stop the media war in the interest of the church and for the greater glory of God.
He said: “It is disheartening how some commentators and columnists have been insulting the Body of Christ in Nigeria as a result of this incident.
“Like we have earlier stated, it doesn’t matter who is involved, rape is ungodly and reprehensible. But we have resisted the temptation to jump into conclusion since a body like ours will be expected to have uncovered the truth about the matter before making public statements and not base its position merely upon media reports.”
He added that, although, COZA had not been an active member of CAN, but that does not put the church outside the spiritual watch-care of CAN.
“CAN is the umbrella body for Christians and churches in Nigeria. Jesus Christ, the Head of the Church, does not turn back anyone that comes to Him and CAN also does not. The Ministry of the Church, according to Jesus Christ, is the Ministry of Reconciliation, which is centred on true love and forgiveness of those who repent,” Daramola added.
Busola Dakolo in a video released few weeks ago, accused Pastor Fatoyinbo of raping her some years ago when she was under 18.
from dailypost
CAN are confused BODY, i guess they have been paid for all this back and front.
ReplyDeleteSome weeks or days ago, they said they cannot put mouth as the matter no concern them abi no be same CAN again.
Nobody is insulting the body of Christ abeg, they should stop this blackmail.
DeletePeople are fighting biodun not the body of Christ.
We are all part of the body of Christ, its not only when one is a pastor, then he becomes part of Christ's body.
Thank you Push up, well said. People shoukd stop using "the body of Christ" as a cop out.
DeleteThat thing angers me when I hear their body of Christ blackmail.
DeleteLast I checked Biodun Fatoyinbo is still a private citizen of Nigeria that is required to uphold the laws of the Nigeria which includes not having sex with a minor(statutory rape) and rape(without consent). This is Busola against Biodun as a person,and not his church.
@ Ever
DeleteWere u there when CAN took the money?????
This is what SDK have been saying "bearing false witness"
When CAN washed their hands like PONTIUS PILATE u people accused them separating themselves from COZA, now they are coming in, u are there accusing them of bribery tuehhhhhhhh people of the world
People are using this to fight the Church but they should know that, BIODUN, got issue and not the church
Timi already told people he isn't fighting the Church but the man that raped his wife
Lillysimple, same CAN that we all know collects money and yep, its a known fact, google the news of them fighting over how to share the 'thank you for visiting Buhari " money.
DeleteI am not fighting any church or saying the fight is against COZA.
They should not speak with 2mouth, how can they say they will not be involved and in few weeks they just pick interest to get involved...
The day wey hn ngozi havila former bestie go open mouth talk her experience for coza when she was invited for a program and the reason she stop hyping biodun nd even unfollowed him on IG one month later .d internet go scatter .well make i just mind my business..
DeleteCAN speaking from both side of the mouth. My question is if there was no CCTV at the shop where that slapping Senator slapped that lady, and she came out to say it, everybody would have said she was paid to rubbish the Senator.
ReplyDeleteThat's how Nigeria is. The CCTV was the girl's savior that animal Clifford will have denied it all. BTW his name is not Elisha he had to change name when many ladies died through him.
DeleteCheche Ojukwu went for NYSC in 1999 at Mubi he used his charms on her then married her in 2010 she died 2013 leaving behind an infected young boy. He Infected her with HIV then tied up her in her sick state causing her to cry to death, imagine he didn't come for the girl's burial at awka etiti.
Her Facebook name was Eucharia Uche (Cheche) Ojukwu from Awka Etiti in Anambra State. Clifford Ishaku God will punish you.

Anon 11:45!..😲😲
DeleteBlessed, thank you my dearest. Infact there is something I am trusting God for and if I get it. I will bless you with something.
DeleteThe CCTV was too glaring so there was nothing to deny. I felt so bad. The lady didn't lift a finger yet this evil man was slapping her like a thief.
Anon you said what 😳🙆🏿♀️☹️. Some humans are wicked o.
DeleteAs much as I know it's good to forgive, its also important that Busola gets closure and also clear her name. She has been accused by the supporters of Biodun that she's lying. Biodun is also not agreeing to committing the crime so what are they forgiving. The court of law should investigate the whole matter and prove who is lying between the two of them, else, Busola will be trolled endlessly.
ReplyDeleteCynthia, even the court do not tell d truth, if so,many innocent souls wont b sentenced for a crime they know nothing about. In all of these, d high and mighty in most cases always wins. Expect less from d world. Truth will always find its way out one way or the other.
DeleteOh yes! This is good!
ReplyDeleteOju se mo.
ReplyDeleteLol @ "although, COZA had not been an active member of CAN, but that does not put the church outside the spiritual watch-care of CAN".
ReplyDeleteI thought CAN denied COZA as their member?
I don't trust CAN one bit and there is a conspiracy going on!
Now I understand why Modele was shouting.🧐😯
Conspiracy? Smh.
DeleteAbi o, same thing i was just saying.
DeleteThey should pick a struggle or fight or just remain viewers.
Hmmmnn,
ReplyDeleteOko Biodun at'obo Busola ti da nkan le.
I thought they said 🤔🤔...never mind
ReplyDeleteThis CAN association are just confused lot.
ReplyDeleteNot to sound insensitive or something , but this Gucci pastor is FINE!
Serious money has and is changing hands. Is it not Nigeria? This man will of course go scot free. Although there is a huge black mark against his name and no matter the scrutiny sooner or later a dog always returns to its vomit.
ReplyDeleteThey should have just kept quiet as usual instead of this statement they just released.
ReplyDeleteCAN has admitted COZA is not a member of their association so please what powers do they have to investigate anything? No matter what the findings are they're not in a position to enforce any decisions. Is this investigation not tantamount to amebo?
ReplyDeleteThe police investigation is what matters really. Rape is a criminal offense and is under their jurisdiction. CAN can like to keep quiet on this matter and instead use this opportunity to tackle sexual abuse within their own church ranks.
They just wakeup!
ReplyDeleteOkay
ReplyDeleteI thought they said they were not registered under them? They should not politicize this issue abeg! Let it be treated as it should be treated make we no hear another thing. They should not confuse us with their confusion.
ReplyDeleteCAN should CAN their double tongue! They lack integrity.
