I write this with a very heavy heart, but also with a sense of responsibility towards those involved in the whole mess and as a way of informing the general public. A young student reached out to me on X in 2019. He desired to have an encounter with the Holy Spirit, and I gave him a call. Within an hour, he was filled with the Holy Spirit, and not only him but other students in his room and beyond that his entire hostel. We were on that call for over three hours, and even after I hung up, the fire of the Holy Spirit continued to burn in the entire hostel. It was unbelievable to many who had never seen the move of the Holy Spirit in that light before. The president of the student fellowship on that campus heard about what happened and asked the young man to reach out to me and invite me to their annual programme at their university They were all students, and when they reached out, I responded as I have always done. I told them I would pay for my own transportation and upkeep. I expect no honorarium from them, but I expect them to be eager to learn about the Lord Jesus and walk in the reality of His power through the Holy Spirit. I went to their school and attended the event. It was monumental, as diverse kinds of miracles broke out at that event. This campus fellowship president somehow decided that he would align himself with me and the work of God that has been placed in my hands. I, however, do not believe in ministers submitting their ministries to another person or someone claiming that he was the one who gave another person a platform to thrive as a believer. I believe that if a young minister needs my support to stand on his own and thrive, I should not restrain myself but make sure I offer everything I can to ensure that such a young minister becomes successful. I supported this young minister in every way; he wove himself into my network, his became the adopted ministry that members of our fellowship supported financially and materially in every possible way. We set up his church in 2021 and built a church for him so that he would no longer need to rent a space in 2024. By all standards, he came into success, and I can beat my chest that he would surpass those of us who started a bit late because he started early, and he was having a very strong impact on his community and the body of Christ at large. Three weeks ago, he called me and told me he was in some financial mess and would need my help. I ignored him because I had noticed a pattern with him over the years, which I found to be very unflattering. He was always begging, cajoling, manipulating, and sometimes even acting in an aggressive manner towards people for money. I had called him aside and warned him several times to desist from this mindset. "I have not chopped anything out of his money" is not the right mindset of a believer. I also knew that the same way he called me soliciting for funds, he would have called several other members of our ministry the same way. That was his Modus Operandi over time so that he would get as much as possible from as many people as possible to resolve one issue. He liked playing all of us against one another and he was not averse to trading gossip and negative information about to others to another in order to ingratiate himself with someone he deemed a target for his financial benefit. Within a week, another person from his church reached out to me on X, asking that I let him send me a DM because of something he wanted to report to me. I reached out to the person, and I was told the most horrible thing that I have heard in recent years. I was told this young minister sexually molests and assaults the male members of his ministry. I was told this has been going on for years and that there are many victims who are coming out and demanding justice at his church location. I reached out to three pastors and begged them to help establish the truth of these allegations. The pastors reached out to the person who contacted me, and he in turn reached out to the others. The total number of young men whom this young man had sexually stimulated with his hands until they ejaculated was at least four. The others whose sex organs he touched and stimulated but not to the point of ejaculation were ten. In total, fourteen people came forward. Others told the story of this young man telling them to strip their clothing and using anointing oil to "wank" them in the name of conducting deliverance for them; others talked about how he used guile to collect money from them and even land properties, etc. My heart sank. I don't think I have ever cried as I have in the last three weeks. For days, I just remained in bed, staring into space and mourning in silence. I am no stranger to human beings and their ability to hurt you for loving them and believing in them, but this one hit me in a different way. His victims are in their late teens and early twenties. They begged me to step in and ensure that they get justice. I reached out to this young man, and he lied and lied and lied. He said there had been a word of prophecy that something like that would happen, but God said they would come back and beg him, and that he should not defend himself. I reached out to my lawyer and the Heads of Ministries to seek their counsel. They said it is a criminal offence and that the case must be taken up with the police. On the 23rd of September 2026, four of the victims went to the police station to report the case We also engaged a lawyer for them; a petition was written and submitted. I called the young man into a meeting last weekend, and I discovered that he was still being sly. He had told the other minister at whose house we had the meeting that he was innocent of the crime three days before the meeting. His inability to see what was going on and be remorseful was beyond me. It was like seeing a monster come fully out of its cave. After the meeting that day, I realised that it would be best if i washed my hands of this young man and distanced myself from him completely. Two days later, I got a call from another pastor. This young man had gone to this friend to tell a version of the story that was still untrue, and he was aiming to use me to sort out his victims, pay off his debts, placate them and make them forgive him so that he could return to the church we built for him to continue his life. All I was useful for in his estimation was to help him solve the problem, but I was deemed unworthy of the truth, and his victims were unworthy of his remorse or contrition. I challenged the Pastor to ask him to tell him the truth. I told him not to come to me defending a lie. Did he admit he did those things? I said I wouldn't lift a finger to help him unless he at least owned up to the evil that he did. The pastor called me back later and said, "He has admitted that he touched this one and that one and those ones and whatever else" Wow. As a ministry, we have reached out to his victims, and I will be having a meeting with them in a few days. Therapists have also been invited to be in the meeting, and so have elderly ministers of the gospel. The aim is for their healing and to ensure that the trauma he unleashed on them wouldn't spread to other people in the future. I wrote this so that the victims can read in my own hand all that had transpired and note that nothing has been covered up or swept under the carpet. I am also praying for the young man involved that he would find his way to the Lord in humility and that he would also confront the demon he is fighting by facing his victims and truly apologising to them for the evil he meted out on them. As for me, I have not been myself, and I believe that by doing this, I will be able to shed this weight on my chest and move on with my assignment in Christ at the same speed I was going before this hard halt. The pain feels like the cut of a thousand swords. Too many questions and too few answers. I apologise to the young man's victims. I know they have questions, but I wish they had spoken up earlier. I also apologise to all those who would have expected me to have seen it or noticed it somehow. I never kept quiet over this young man, as God is my witness. I kept shouting, but only a few listened to me, and at a point it felt like I was deliberately witch-hunting him. I make no excuses; I should have known, and I am very sorry for dropping the ball in this terrible manner. I thank you all for your patience. The police are actively investigating the young man. His victims are receiving all the support we can give and more. We have not rested a minute since the moment the information was presented to us. I thank everybody for their patience. -GSW-
