This is very, very sad and shocking. A popular Lagos pastor who has alphabets S and T beginning his first two names was caught on top of his younger lover by one of his children. The lover, a 16-year-old SS II student, broke down in tears upon being stumbled on by the man’s son whose first name is Wale. But while she cried, the pastor pounced on the poor boy, querying what he came to do in his office when he was supposed to be in school.
The pastor who enjoys turning out in outlandish attires and speaks forcefully is said to be very randy, and sleeps with his female members with reckless abandon. Widely known as PT, he operates from one of the Lagos suburbs and was once alleged to have attempted to sleep with his cousin. One married woman who used to worship in his church until she fled told us that she left after an unpleasant encounter with him. “He invited me to his office and was asking me what my husband has to offer that he couldn’t. Can you imagine that? And this was after he had failed to convince me to go to bed with him”. YES INTERNATIONAL! Magazine, again, learnt that any girl or woman that rebuffs his love overtures is usually tagged an Ogbanje by him. The pastor who is constantly at loggerheads with his wife and some no-nonsense church members because of his unchristian ways has been losing patronage and membership daily. From the South South, but married to a Yoruba lady, he had a grown up son from a lover before settling down.
Still unrepentant, but now more careful, he is very visible on TV and his posters and billboards litter the streets of Lagos and Ogun where those who do not know him well still revere him. The 3rd, 18th and 6th alphabets begin the name of his church.
