Meanwhile, the 61-year-old cleric, Famakinwa Ajayi, who was arrested for allegedly impregnating a 16-year old girl, said: “It was the girl that came to my house for prayers.
“I didn’t rape her, but when I was threatened by the police that if I failed to confess, I might be sent to the correctional centre that was why I had to dance to their tunes.
“I am ready to take care of the girl including the pregnancy. I even asked them if DNA could be done to ascertain if I am the owner of the child. It was five days ago that the girl came to me that she is pregnant for me.
“I didn’t take her to the marketplace at night, and I didn’t sleep with her. But all am saying is that I am ready to accept the baby and the mother.“
