Fine, but can she and her husband survive the legal onslought should Fatoyinbo decides to sue them for defamation. The media is not a police station nor a law court. I think that's the crux of the message the OP is trying to pass across.

joseph1832:
I'm very sure this OP doesn't know the difference between rape and consensual sex.

Like so what if she's slept with several of her church members? Is it a crime to sleep with one's church members? (Even though I hate this hypocrisy in Christians)

She accused Biodun Fatoyinbo of raping her. Now this is a very serious issue. Raping a woman is very very different from having consensual sex with a woman.

No sir. Not everyone behaves the same way. Some people would just freeze in shock, under the same circumstances. Ask any psychologist.

9jaBloke:


Yes, those are the idiots defending Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo who we are not even sure is guilty yet and seriously hurting his chances of exonerating himself.

Imagine the impudence of imam07 coming online to ask me to swear that I've never commited statutory rape as if it's normal for every adult male to lay with underaged girls.


My answer is No, Never and I've spotted a Rapist.

So all she wants is to tell a story to ruin The guy more like a vindictive move.....gaining sympathy as a victim but she doesn’t want to go legal about it..but if the guy were a road side mechanic she wouldn’t have bothered

doesn’t that sound really wrong?
This isn’t just telling ur friends and colleagues at work...the is like a press conference

Nigerians are just very annoying??

laudate:


The minute a woman witholds her consent to a sexual act, and the man still goes ahead, it is RAPE.

Are you kidding me, do you expect her to win in court without proof? He's a powerful person and a supposed man of God too.

Hahaha, you are cancelling every comments contrary to your opinion, Hian, nawao

TonyeBarcanista:

Pressure to have sex is NOT rape sir! Rape is forced sex! I mean, as long as a person consented to the sex before it happened, it CAN NEVER be said to be rape.

engineerboat:


And does social media and stret protest solve her problem.

People are making millions from this already

joseph1832:
All I'm saying is the guy in question is a pastor. A supposed man of God. How can a pastor be accused of rape?

Tell me, have anybody ever come out to accuse Oyedepo, Adeboye, Tunde Bakare of rape? Or have you heard anybody accuse the men I mentioned of committing adultery?

In the Christian world, fornication and adultery is a sin. The fact that the Pastor is being accused of this is something every right thinking christian should question.

That is my what I'm saying.

Written by TonyeBarcanista

I have been following the alleged rape incident between Mrs Bisola Dakolo, the wife of musician Timi Dakolo, and Pastor Biodun, the Senior Pastor at COZA, where Mrs Dakolo alleged that Pastor Biodun had multiple canal knowledge of her without her consent as a then 17 years old teenager, an incident that allegedly happened some 20 years ago.

I have watched the pronouncements of some social media jurists and popular figures, including some politicians, musicians, influencers and actors, with most pronouncing judgement against the accused (Pastor Biodun) and a few others "standing with the accused".

May I add my voice to this subject...

1. Does Being A Philanderer Makes One A Rapist?

A couple of people, including Mr Timi Dakolo, the husband of Bisola, have accused Pastor Biodun to be a man that engage in inappropriate relationship with several female members of his COZA church, while that remains an unproven allegation, some commentators pronounced the pastor as "guilty" of rape because of his too many "womanising scandals", while some others narrated his philandering days in Ilorin, Kwara state, where he allegedly had multiple romps with several ladies of loosed virtues. While the allegations/testimony may be true, half truth or completely untrue, it still does not help the allegation of Mrs Bisola.

Rape is non-consented sexual relations and it is a criminal offence. Having multiple sexual partners is not a crime under the law irrespective of moral or spiritual opinion.

2. Bisola Dakolo Herself Was Accused of Having Sexual Relations With COZA Clerics

On May 30, a certain female with Instagram handle @elenapipper informed Mr Timi Dakolo that his own wife, Bisola, who incidentally is the accused of Pastor Biodun, was involved in illicit sexual relationship with Pastors of COZA church and some of her choir colleagues. While the claim of Elena remains an allegation, I believe that "2+2" should be put together by social media jurists if their intent is to give social media justice. I am yet to see the response of Timi and Bisola to that allegation and in all honesty, I expect the Dakolos to sue Elena for defamation/libel so as to prove their innocence- just like several social media jurists have challenged Pastor Biodun to do.

3. The Media Is Not The Appropriate Place To Lodge Criminal Complaint

I have said it umpteenth time that the media, be it traditional media or social media, is not a police station to lodge criminal complaints. The traditional media is interested in selling papers while the social media is highly interested in cashing out on trending issues. Popular faces and celebrities are interested in jumping on trending issues so as to stay relevant while influencers are interested in swaying perception. Majority of these commentators and social media jurists aren't interested in vindicating the innocent and to bring the real guilty party to JUSTICE. I heard of a planned protest at COZA Church by some so-called CSOs, but that again is just to sway public opinion and not necessarily see to that JUSTICE is done.

However, the appropriate thing for Bisola Dakolo to do is to first go to the Police station nearest to her, report the case, get her witnesses and other evidence, assist the Police in their investigation and ensure that the accused is charged appropriately to establish his innocence or guilt and get justice, which can only be dispensed by the court.

4. My Position On The Rape Allegation By Bisola Against Pastor Biodun

Rape is a crime against humanity and a robbery of ones dignity, it is a serious crime that should be treated as an offence worse than armed robbery- because the victim is robbed mentally, emotionally and psychologically.

However, rape accusation is one that should be properly lodged at the Police station and investigated by the appropriate police officer, and if found to be true, the perpetrator be punished. But if otherwise, the accuser be punished. As such, I neither agree with the accuser (Bisola) nor the accused (Pastor Biodun) just yet, but proper investigation be done.


Convulsively, we should allow wisdom be our guide in making judgement! May justice be done!

Ibiyeomie was falsely accused of sleeping with an actress. You all crucified him on the internet if not that the man doesn't tolerate nonsense. That said, anyone could be accused of a crime. The pastor is a human being.

Okay. Thanks. One more question...where Busola and Timi Dakolo really members of COZA a few years ago? Was that where they met and got married?

madamgrace:
Yes but he is not a saint

TonyeBarcanista:
Being a philanderer doesn't translate to being a rapist

1StopRudeness:


There’s is what is called conviction by trend... that’s what happened to bill Cosby.... u think all those ladies that came forward actually got raped. Many did it willingly..it’s the US for crying out loud sex, drugs, and weed go hand in hand especially for teenagers....they just wanted to jail bill Cosby by all means

joseph1832:
judging by how ibiyeomie acted, one can say he's not guilty. People don't accuse you of a crime and you keep quiet and wait patiently for it to die down. There's want they call defamation in our law.

If by tomorrow Fatoyinbo haven't sued Dakolo and his wife, then he's guilty. It's as simple as that. You just don't sit down and let people assassinate your character when you know you're innocent.

GrabHisBalls:
But he said he has filed a suit. Perhaps, they're processing it.

Whatever it is, let's stay neutral and not be judges.
