Pastor Anselm Madubuko of the Revival Assembly reportedly confessed to an adulterous affair with a church member on Sunday.
The lady at the centre of the story, Kikelomo Akinkumi has also shared her side of the story via an exclusive statement released to website – Gossip Boyz.
She rejects the adultery claims and explains that she was a member of
the church’s prayer department but was suspended from the church for
undisclosed reasons along with other members of her department.
I
really do not know where all these stories are coming from.. People
have been calling me asking about this story and why I haven’t been in
church for sometime. Yes I was suspended from church! But adultery? It
was never about adultery; I was suspended from church but I wasn’t the
only one who was suspended. I am in the prayer department of my church
and the HOD of that department was also suspended. The church decided to
suspend us because of reasons best known to them. The thing is, that
department was suspended including my pastor who heads the department”
I
have made up my mind never to attend that church again, because the
church of God does not belong to any man but God. I believe no Man of
God has the right to tell members of the church not to come to church
again. I have spoken to Pastor Anselm and in his word, he would sue
anyone carrying false story about him confessing to adultery, they must
apologize to all parties mentioned…It didn’t happen! Thank you.”
The church has not released an official statement at this time. However, prominent church members have spoken out to icampusng.
who attends Pastor Anselm Madubuko’s church, The Revival Assembly
Church in Lagos and is the head of Teens Ministry and popular actor, Paul Obazele
who is the Head Of Media have denied the news online today that Pastor
Madubuko confessed to adultery during a church service on Sunday, both
entertainment personalities who spoke to our corespondent in a separate
telephone interviews said the popular pastor did not in any way have
sexual encounter with Kikelomo Akinkunmi, ex-wife of music producer,
K-Solo neither did he confess to adultery with her.
KSB who spoke to us first said what happened on Sunday was totally and clearly misconstrued.
“What
the Pastor apologized for was the fact that he did not heed to warnings
from a lot of people that the girl has a destructive spirit, not that
he slept with her.Kike came to the
church disguised as a prayer warrior and as somebody who needed help,
the church embraced her and she joined the Intercessory section, she
gave a lot of prophecies, some of which actually came true but she also
had destructive tendencies as many people in the department had to leave
because of her. At that point, many people went to the Pastor and told
him too expel the girl as she had destructive spirit and many even said
she had Jezebel spirit but the Pastor refused to believe them. He only
consulted with the head of Prayer warriors who is another Pastor who
said the girl is truly talented but after a while, she also descended on
the Head Of the department, as a matter of fact the last straw that
broke the camel’s back was when she gave prophesy that the Pastor
Madubuko married wrongly and that he should close down the ministry. The
Pastor began to see that he was wrong to have disregarded the warnings
of other prayer warriors that have called for the sacking or expulsion
of the girl and indeed that was what Pastor Madubuko apologized for’.
After a while, popular actor, Paul Obazele called us and introduced himself as Head of Media of the ministry, he said
“Nothing
like Pastor confessing to adultery ever happened, I am talking to you
as the head of media, that story is not true and as KSB said, we can get
you the tape. Please disregard such news”.
