EFCC accused of dehumanisation of ladies during Ondo club raid

EXCLUSIVE: Detained Abuja Pastor Amos Isah raped 14-year-old in church, threatened to kill her if she exposed him – Family written by Reporter June 26, 2025 – Prayed For Her Before And After Assault The detained founder and lead pastor of Prophetic Victory Voice of Fire Ministry in Gwagwalada, Abuja, Amos Isah, allegedly threatened to kill the 14-year-old girl he is accused of raping in the church auditorium, along with her family, if she spoke out. Isah was arrested and detained by the Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) over allegations of raping the minor. The arrest, which took place last week, has sent shockwaves through the community, as Pastor Isah was known for his charismatic sermons and claims of divine power. His church, located behind Noble Noel Academy, opposite Gwagwalada Market in Abuja, has been a centre of worship for many residents. A review of his Facebook page shows that Isah frequently posted messages about holiness and moral uprightness, contrasting sharply with the allegations against him. However, a member of the girl’s family told SaharaReporters on Wednesday that Isah has a history of preying on underage girls, often taking them to secluded areas in his tinted-window car. The source asserted that the abuse escalated when Isah invited the girl to the new church auditorium office, which had been prepared by female church members but was not yet in full use. The source explained that once inside, he locked multiple doors to prevent escape, allegedly rubbed her head, asked her to kneel and then prayed for her before the assault. The family source added that after the Isah saw blood, he gave the victim N3,000 for “medication,” prayed for her again, and then threatened to kill her and her family if she ever exposed him. The source said: “Pastor Amos Isah has been preying on minors. There are others involved, and the police already have investigations underway, so this is not a hidden matter. “The girl in question is an only child, aged 14 (nearly 15 at the time of the incident). From the start, he followed his usual pattern: luring girls, taking them to bushes in his tinted-window car, where he would assault them. “He will have even slept with the girl when she was 13, because there was a time he took her in the car, and then he took her to a lonely bush. He first contacted the girl through her mother’s phone. He told her to meet him at the church. “When she arrived, he manipulated the situation, making it seem like her mother had sent her. Later, he instructed his assistant, Segun, to direct the girl to meet him at Mobil. His intention was clear: to assault her. “He drove her past his church member’s shop and told the girl to lay low to avoid being seen by church members, then drove to a remote area near Sharia Court in Gwagwalada, parked, and moved to the back seat. When he tried to remove her clothes, she protested, saying she was too young. He backed off but questioned her about her relationships, warning her not to tell anyone. “The abuse escalated when he called her to his office—a secluded space in the new auditorium, which women had prepared but he had not moved into. He invited her on a Wednesday, but she said she couldn’t make it because she was at her mother’s shop. He invited her again on a Monday to the new auditorium, locked multiple doors, ensuring no escape. When the girl protested, he rubbed her head and asked her to kneel down and prayed, after which he forced himself on her despite her resistance. “Afterward, he threatened her, gave her ₦3,000 for ‘medication’ after seeing blood on her. He asked her to kneel down again, prayed for her, and told her to go but warned her not to speak out, implying he had police connections who could harm her or her family. “The girl later confided in her mother, who took her to a counsellor. Fearful, the girl begged her mother not to tell her father. When the father eventually found out, he reported the case to the police.” SaharaReporters

REVELEAD: Why Pastor Kumuyi Is Changing Some Deeper Life Principles

Published

on

The General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Folorunsho Kumuyi, has announced a series of changes to some of the long-standing rules of the church, saying many of them were never scriptural but were introduced for administrative purposes.

Pastor Kumuyi, widely regarded as one of the most influential church leaders in the world, is the founder of Deeper Life Bible Church, which began in 1973 as a small Bible study group in Lagos.

Over the decades, the ministry has grown into a global Christian movement. The Lagos headquarters alone attracts over 120,000 worshippers weekly, placing it among the five largest single congregations worldwide. In Nigeria, the church boasts more than one million members with over 5,000 branches, and a further 3,000 branches spread across Africa, Europe, and North America.

Speaking at the church 2025 Global Family and Marriage Conference, Pastor Kumuyi announced modifications to certain marriage rules that had long been regarded as doctrinal. He clarified that many of these practices were never rooted in the Bible but were merely administrative guidelines designed to provide structure.

One of the major changes is the cancellation of the restriction that prevented a lady from visiting her suitor before marriage. According to Kumuyi, intending couples may now visit each other during courtship, provided they are accompanied by an elder. The long-held six-month mandatory courtship period has also been scrapped. “We just felt you need some time to know one another. And then we said one month will be too short, two months too short. So, why not six months? But it is not from the Bible,” he said.

He stated the importance of Christians being able to distinguish between God’s commandments and church traditions.“As a Christian, you need to be so mature that you know the difference between the law of God and the principles in the church. Six months is all right, but it’s not something inflexible. If we change it to three months, we’re not changing the Bible, because six months is not in the Bible,”

Pastor Kumuyi also clarified the role of marriage committees in Deeper Life, noting that their purpose was to provide guidance and not to exercise authority beyond what is written in the scriptures. “There’s no marriage committee in the New Testament. We created it to help you, not because we can give you a chapter and a verse. It is church administration,” he stated.

These changes are seen by people as another step in the ongoing review of church practices that many members and outsiders have often considered too strict. Since founding the church has faced both admiration and criticism for its distinct doctrines. Some of its earlier beliefs and practices have either been misinterpreted or have since evolved:

Technology Use: The church, which once opposed television and modern gadgets, now embraces media and social platforms for evangelism.read the gospel.

Marriage Rules: Inter-church marriages are now accepted, provided the partner is from a Bible-believing church with a holy standard of living.

Dress Code: The church still emphasizes modesty, but women no longer have to tie scarves at all times, and men are not strictly bound to suits.

Medical Treatment: While rumors once suggested Deeper Life discouraged hospital visits, today members are encouraged to seek proper medical care when needed.

Christmas Celebrations: Although many members spend Christmas at church camps, the church has clarified that celebrating Christmas is not forbidden.

Other misconceptions, such as supposed food restrictions or claims that Pastor Kumuyi had relocated to the UK, have also been dispelled.

Through these reforms, Pastor Kumuyi is reinforcing his long-held belief that while order is necessary in the church, it must never be mistaken for scripture.
