COZA sex scandal update: Fear grips Fatoyinbo as another member threatens to speak

About three weeks after Ese Walter, an erstwhile female church member of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Abuja opened a can of worm by confessing her one-week nonstop marathon sex with the church’s senior pastor and founder, Biodun Fatoyinbo, fear is said to have gripped the ‘man of God’ as more messy details are being unearthed.

Apart from the numerous darts that are currently being thrown at the door step of embattled Fatoyinbo from all angles, another erstwhile member of COZA, Franca E, who had also publicly confessed being a victim of the pastor’s amorous advances is currently ‘boiling’ and threatening to spill the beans.

“Oga pastor, try and deny my story publicly and see American wonder…I still have the pictures and our conversations on tape,” Franca earlier wrote.

Weeks after the distasteful confession, which evoked media frenzy, the allegedly harassed Franca is currently expressing disappointment that Pastor Fatoyinbo has not categorically accepted or denied the accusations leveled against him.

The pastor who spoke on the accusations in one of his Sunday services has neither come out to refute nor accept the allegation but claimed that when he asked God, God told him to keep quiet, a statement, which his disappointed members and angry Nigerians have described as ‘nonsense.’ However, when the kitchen became hotter, he promised to address a press conference on the awful matter which till date he is yet to do.   

Though Fatoyinbo has chosen the path of silence, the sexual drama has refused to die a natural death. In what promises to be a re-opening of the sexual scandal wound, another blogger, Japhet Omojuwa has thrown his hat into the ring for a battle against the allegedly ‘randy’ and ‘cocky’ senior pastor.

In his recent article- It’s time COZA Pastor, Biodun answers these questions – Church member, Japheth Omojuwa- which is bound to re-ignite another social media war, Omojuwa lampooned the silence of the pastor over the sex scandal allegations by Ese Walters and other ladies.

His article reveals that money (N500, 000.00) attempted changing hands between pastor Fatoyinbo and Ms. Walter in a desperate attempt by the pastor to buy her silence. This and other new revelations yet to be known to the public were what Omojuwa wrote about.

Part of the article reads thus: “Did he do what Ese Walter accused him of doing? When she came back to Nigeria and asked that he needed to step away from the pulpit, did he meet up with her, even tried to kiss her again and later called her to say he forgot something in her car after he left? Did the thing he forgot turn out to be N500, 000 cash! Was this part of his personal earnings in church or was it part of the church’s income? Did they meet at another hotel – not in England – where he tried to pay for his own accommodation and had his cash refused because the hotel wouldn’t take cash so Ese had to pay with her card? Does he use an aphrodisiac perfume? Is that for the fun of it or for some kind of fun? Did he insist Ese Walter stay back in London after she came back to Nigeria defying his earlier demand?
“Ese Walter might have held back many details in her blog because no one gets to write it all on matters like that, but will the real man please stand up and say something? Oh, and our ultra-super-religious-and-spiritual-we-are-all-clean society has crucified Ese Walter, making sure others like her never dare come out to cast other pastors again. And trust me, there are other named ones. You see, we think we are a free people but we are not.”

Indeed, the kitchen has continued to get hotter for the disgraced and embattled pastor as many sections of the society have dismissed what they described as ‘silence tactics aimed at sweeping a critical matter under the carpet.’ They are strongly not in support of his silence and want him to come out and clear the air.

 “Now my pastor, we need to hear something re-assuring from you. We don’t need you to tell us that you never had anything to do with that girl…if it’s not true. We want the whole truth from you. We want you to tell us the truth and with a promise to try preventing it from happening. In a country as corrupt as ours, where people we respect lie and do evil and feel good about it, it would do your image a whole lot of good to come out and come clean. So many of us will respect you the more,” a certain Akan Imoh also wrote.
