Actress Juliana Olayode Accuses Pastor Adigun Of Sexually Abusing Her Sister [Video]
Nollywood actress, Juliana Olayode has taken to social media to accused Timilehin Adigun, a pastor at The Ark Church in Lagos, of sexually assaulting her sister.
Juliana Olayode Calls Out Timilehin Adigun
The problem between the two started on Tuesday when the actress called out the pastor who was her “spiritual” father and manager, for impersonating her on Facebook, and refusing to grant her access to the social media platform.
In the video, the actress claimed her Facebook password is with Adigun alongside passwords for some other pages, and the pastor has allegedly unpublished her Facebook page.
Sharing the video, she wrote, “I know some people are going to call me and say all sort but I AM TIRED!!! To some people, this might be a wrong move, and some might prefer I stay quite but I am honestly TIRED!!!! And I am not going to shut up.
“I DON’T KNOW WHAT Timilehin Adigun wants from me, I really don’t know. There is so much I want to say but I don’t even have the words to express it. I also know that people are going to have different opinion about it.
“Right now, I don’t want anybody calling me or texting me to tell me how to go about my life, what to say or what not to say, what to do or what not to do, nobody should tell me what the spirit is saying to them or tell me to think about the church and the body of Christ. I don’t want to hear any of it.
“I don’t understand why I am having to pay or stress to get my stuff from a guy who is sitting in his mother’s school doing nothing. I just want my passwords for goodness sake and I want Timilehin Adigun to leave me alone!
Juliana Olayode Makes Sexual Allegation
In another video shared on her Instagram page, Olayode claimed she found that Pastor Adigun invited her sister from school, lodged her in a hotel, and touched her inappropriately in what she described as a three-day sexual assault.
The actress also claimed that the pastor asked her sister to allow him to perform anal sex with her, adding that this was what was made her when she went to see him in his church.
She alleged that she also suspected that the pastor was sexually assaulting her sister and had visited him to ask him to stop, but he denied the allegation, accusing her of using his ”weakness and struggles” against him.
Sharing the video, Olayode wrote, “You manipulated and sexually abused my sister and you thought I would be calm, you expect me not to be furious. How are you processing the things you did, the things you said? How? I don’t get you.
“You talk about apology and forgiveness. Forgiving you is a process for me. I forgave you then, for my sanity. Just when I am trying to move on, you do something else that triggers me and I get mad at you again.
“The hurt is really deep, the pain, the trauma, the disappointment, the sleepless nights, the tears that drenched my pillow, the shock, the entire experience is indescribable. There is so much to say. I don’t have the words yet.”
“My book Rebirth is full of your praises Timilehin, I spoke about all the things you did for me. Even though then you had done it with two or three people that I know, but they were in good terms with you and they had forgiven you and everything seem to be okay.
“We all thought it was a thing of the past for you and it will never happen again. When you told me it will never happen again, I believed you, I thought it had stopped. Hence the reason I chose to focus on the good things when I wrote my book. I saw you as a Father then, so I couldn’t write a book and talk about your past.
“You kept telling people, ‘ if Juliana ever talks about this she’ll ruin herself and her career, she’ll never be able to say it, she will be contradicting herself, Rebirth will speak for me’.
“By the way everything I said about Timilehin in Rebirth is true, and that’s why the hurt was really deep for me…. and I didn’t know what to say and how to say it and I didn’t want to look like the ungrateful person.
I couldn’t talk to anyone, I remember talking to somebody I respect so much for the first time about it because I wanted to get help and feeling guilty I did, processing the whole thing in my head and hoping I didn’t do wrong by telling someone about it, different thought in my head, you meant so much to me that I couldn’t say anything bad that you did and not feel terrible..”
Pastor Timi Adigun Defends Himself
In a three-part video shared on his Instagram page, the cleric denied Olayode’s claims of sexually abusing her sister, saying that the film star came by his office trembling because she knew she wronged him.
Pastor Adigun also acknowledged that he indeed created all her social media platforms, including Facebook and YouTube, albeit, he has not confiscated her accounts.
He said, “I have been brought before a social media jury. I have to speak the truth but it is still up to individuals to choose what to believe.
“That said, I want to make it public here that I am ready to stand before any court or panel and I am ready to be investigated.
“When you know you have told the truth, there is no more fear. I never sexually abused anyone! I have facts, figures and dates. What I was guilty of, I owned up to and apologised for. The next I want to see is a subpoena.
“I will continue on social media and continue building my businesses and ministry. This is a distraction I have no time for. I will not be posting on this again.”
