Press Statement
The attention of the leadership of The Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria has been drawn to a video clip trending on social media platforms titled “Sex for grades: Undercover in West Africa Universities- BBC News” Wherein a lecturer in University of Lagos names Dr. Boniface Igbeneghu also described as a pastor in Foursquare Gospel Church was allegedly involved in sexual misconduct with some female students of the university. The general public is hereby informed that as a holiness and Bible-believing Church, we do not condone such heinous and unscriptural act among our ministers. We totally dissociate ourselves from the purported conduct of Dr. Igbenoghu and promise to take appropriate measure as soon as the ongoing investigation is concluded.
Meanwhile, the pastor in question has been asked to step down from all ministerial assignments.
UNILAG vice-chancellor, Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, also confirmed to Premium Times on Monday afternoon that the lecturer had been suspended indefinitely.
“A panel will be set up to investigate the issue,” he said.
Thank you all.
Rev. Ikechukwu Ugbaja
National Secretary. https://t.co/QpCRNpV9Kp
