Suspended RCCG Pastor Accused of homos3xuality Allegations Denies Ever Engaging in S0domy with Male Teenagers – Ravenewsonline

One of the pastors suspended by the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, over allegations of homos3xuality has broken his silence.

The RCCG’s national overseer, Sunday Akande, in a letter dated October 28, 2024, announced that Pastor Ayorinde AdeBello and Deacon Oke Mayowa, were suspended from office over allegations of homos3xuality against young members in the church.

RCCG directed the Special Assistant to the General Overseer on Administration to conduct a thorough investigation into the allegations within two weeks, adding that its doctrine does not allow or tolerate any act of homos3xuality.

In a post on his Instagram, Ayorinde AdeBelloAde denied the allegations, saying that he has never had s3x with any male teenager.

In the post titled: My response to the allegations of sodomising teenagers, Adebello claimed that his comments in a WhatsApp conversation, which went viral, were taken out of context.

According to the pastor, the discussion in question focused on issues of male reproductive health and self-esteem within the teenage WhatsApp group.

“In the past few days, some allegations were made against me and some others via a blog on social media,” the post partly reads.

“I had wanted to respond immediately when it was brought to my attention, but I was advised not to, as I was not the only one named, and all of us may have been mentioned to drive engagement on the blog.

“However, as these allegations have escalated to criminal claims, I am compelled to respond as my prolonged silence has been misconstrued as an admission of guilt.

“I have NEVER demanded sex from any male as payment or gratification to give them assistance, platforms or positions. God is the only king-maker, the only One who can raise and erase kings, and give positions and platforms.

“I have NEVER had sex with Mr Jedidiah or proposed sex to him for any reason. The questions in the screenshot were asked during a conversation in a male teenager WhatsApp group where discussions regarding Male Reproductive Health and self-esteem took place.

“The teenagers were taught about the right hygiene for reproductive health, the right kind of underwear to buy, and that the girth and length determine the underwear size.

“I also explained that their sizes should not affect their self-esteem and that they are perfectly and uniquely created by God.

“It is disheartening to see that the screenshot message has now been mischievously quoted out of context to portray me as someone who has sex with male teenagers.”
