Cleric Sentenced to Life Imprisonment for Abuse and Unlawful Abortions.
Kwara State, Nigeria — Prophet Olayinka Ajiboye, the founder of the Mission House of Divine Land of Joy and Prayer Ministry, has been sentenced to life imprisonment by a Kwara State court following serious allegations of abusing teenage girls and conducting unlawful abortions within church premises.
During the court proceedings, harrowing testimonies revealed a pattern of intimidation and threats aimed at silencing the victims. One victim recounted being repeatedly assaulted in secluded areas of the church after vigils. In contrast, others reported being coerced into swearing secrecy on a Bible, facing severe repercussions if they dared to speak out.
The judgment has sparked widespread outrage and calls for action across social media platforms, with many Nigerians advocating for enhanced protections for minors and greater accountability in cases of abuse. The public’s response highlights an urgent need for systemic reforms to safeguard vulnerable populations.
As the case gains traction, the ongoing discussion emphasizes the necessity for vigilance and justice in combating abuse within religious institutions.
