“I have NEVER demanded for sex from any male as payment or gratification in order to give them assistance, platforms, or positions. God is the only king-maker, the only One who can raise and erase kings, and give positions and platforms.
“I have NEVER had sex with Mr Jedidiah or proposed sex to him for any reason.”
Pastor AdeBello said his previous silence on the matter had been misinterpreted as a sign of guilt.
According to the pastor, his comments in a WhatsApp conversation were taken out of context and misconstrued.
The suspended RCCG pastor explained that the screened WhatsApp message was focused on issues of male reproductive health and self-esteem within a teenage WhatsApp group.
“The questions in the screenshot were asked during a conversation in a male teenager's WhatsApp group where discussions regarding Male Reproductive Health and self-esteem took place.
“The teenagers were taught about the right hygiene for reproductive health, the right kind of underwear to buy, and that the girth and length determine the underwear size. I also explained that their sizes should not affect their self-esteem and that they are perfectly and uniquely created by God.
“It is disheartening to see that the screenshot message has now been mischievously quoted out of context to portray me as someone who has sex with male teenagers.”
