Pastor was criticized by a man for defending an Akwa Ibom vice principal who was accused of impregnating a 13-year-old student; it was disgraceful, appalling, and immoral.

 

One George Viktor Nta has called out a Calabar-based pastor, apostle Israel John, over his comment on the report of an Akwa Ibom school vice principal who allegedly impregnated a 13-year-old JSS3 student in Uyo, AKwa Ibom State.
 
 
On Tuesday, Ubon Marcus, a journalist, posted on Facebook about the incident and described it as 'terrible'.
 
 
In response to the post, the pastor, who manages his own church Facebook account, stated that it was not a rape. He suggested that the minor consented and may have seduced the principal.
 
“As far as it wasn't r3pe, it's not terrible because the 13 year old student accepted the principal before she slept with him. Besides, we haven't heard from the principal whether the girl seduced him,” he wrote.
 
 
In his reaction, Mr Nta described the pastor's comment as disgraceful appalling, immoral, and unacceptable, adding that a minor cannot consent to s3x.

    “While following Ubon Marcus post about a 13yr old Js3 student pregnant for the vice principal of her school here in Uyo I came across the comment by a supposed church account handle by the pastor himself,” Mr Nta wrote.
     
    "Mr Fake Pastor of Revival Streams Church your comment is very disgraceful appalling, immoral, and unacceptable. As a supposed man off, God, you should be advocating for the protection and well-being of minors, not justifying heinous acts.
     
    "The vice principal's actions are statutory r3pe, a serious crime. A 13-year-old student cannot provide consent. Your attempt to shift blame and imply the victim 'seduced' the perpetrator is despicable.
     
    "Your statement disqualifies you from being considered a genuine pastor. Your 'midnight prayers' are a facade. I warn parents to keep their underage teens away from you and your ministry.
     
    I call on law enforcement to investigate your ministry for potential cases of child abuse and defilement. Your words and actions demonstrate a clear disregard for the safety and dignity of minors.
     
    "You need to retract your statement, apologize, and seek guidance. Until then, you pose a danger to vulnerable children.
     
    “Make una deh careful of who you call my Pastor ooo. If I were His Excellency Pastor Umo Eno this fake pastor will be arrested & made to resist parading himself a Pastor. Considering HE is a father and a Pastor that loves children.”
