An Ikeja sexual offences and domestic violence court has handed Pastor Feyi Daniels, founder of I Reign Christian Ministry, a life sentence for “raping a church member”.
On Friday, the trial judge, Rahman Oshodi found the pastor guilty of rape and sexual assault of a female worshipper.
Daniels was arraigned by the Lagos state government over rape, attempted rape and sexual assault of his church members.
The pastor faced trial on an amended four-count charge bordering on rape, sexual assault and attempted rape.
He was accused of sexually violating three of his church members at his residence in Lekki and on the church premises in Ikeja.
In May 2023, the Pastor was remanded in court for allegedly raping a 25-year-old woman at his Lekki residence.
The lady informed the court that the pastor had sex with her during a prayer session, against her will, while ‘speaking in tongues’.
