Rape saga: Masked security agents storm COZA amid protest

Scores of armed security officers have stormed the premises of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) in Abuja.

The officers formed a blockage at the entrance of the church on Sunday to prevent protesters from gaining access into the church.

The protests have been building up since Saturday after Busola Dakolo, wife of the singer and songwriter Timi Dakolo, on Friday accused Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of COZA of raping her about 20 years ago.

The allegation caused a storm over the weekend with many calling for the pastor’s arrest and others showing their support for the preacher.

Fatoyinbo said he had never raped anyone not even as an unbeliever.
