My pastor taught me masturbation, pornography, anal sex, witness tells court

A middle-aged man, Chigozie Emmanuel, has disclosed that his pastor, Elijah Emenandy, allegedly introduced pornography, masturbation and anal sex to him in his church office, adding that the incident happened when he was 19 years old.

Penpushing reports that Emmanuel made the shocking revelation when he testified against the cleric, who is charged with sexual assault by penetration and sexual assault at the an Ikeja High Court, Lagos State

The witness who was on Monday led in evidence by the Lagos State counsel, Olu Azeez testified against the cleric who was a defendant, adding that the pastor had, in December 2020, told his mother that he had a vision about him, where he would die in February 2021 and requested that his mother bring him for prayers immediately.

Penpushing further reports that the witness told the court that when his mother told him, he did not take it seriously, but the clergyman(defendant) sent a message again that he should see him immediately.

“My mum and I then went to see him in his church during an evening programme. Afterwards, when he wanted to see me, he asked if my mum should come along, but I said I could handle it. He told me we had met before in a church (name withheld) and that he was my teacher in the church, and then I remembered how I knew him’.

‘He said he got a vision of how I died in February 2021, and I asked if he should give me a solution. He said he would pray for me and I should come for counselling every Tuesday; he told me other things and that he would give me spiritual assignments.

‘He asked me questions like if I had ever had sex before or masturbated and if I watched pornography; he also asked if I had wet dreams or if I was into fraud. I said I had not done those things, but I was about getting into fraud. He advised me not to get into fraud, and I should change my lifestyle, and I did; I stopped wearing earrings, my dress code and how I speak.”

Penpushing also reports that the witness said that one of the days after that, the cleri called him to his office and asked him to take off his trousers and that he should touch his manhood until he became hard, but he said he could not because he had never done that before.

The witness in addition told the court that in the days afterwards, the pastor(defendant) would take off his clothes and ask him to do the same and sit on his lap and then make him suck his nipples, recalling that, at first, he refused, but the defendant told him that he was releasing powers from his body parts to wade off any spirit of death.

Penpushing reports that victim added that the defendant started showing him porn videos on his phone to teach him how to masturbate in his church office, and that  the pastor took him to his friend’s house, where he did the same and asked him to stand on a Bible and masturbate.

The witness told the court that  he could not do what the pastor asked him to do; and immediately, stepped aside from the Bible and went to the bedside where the defendant lay watching him,stating that after trying for sometime, he(victim) ejaculated, and the defendant looked at his semen and said it was okay.

Penpushing further reports that Emmanuel equally disclosed to the court that the pastor told him that he should ejaculate more often and then called him to the bed to lay with him and suck his nipples.

‘He asked me to suck his nipple until he ejaculated and said that was how he had helped other boys, and that was how we did that at his friend’s house twice after that day. Then we started again at the church, and he would go naked and ask me to suck his nipples and masturbate, that every time we ejaculate together, life was transferred from his own to mine so that I won’t die. I believed him because he was like my spiritual father.

‘He then promised to help with my education and everything, that I should move to his house after telling my mum, but I did not tell my dad. I moved to his room and parlour self-contained apartment somewhere in Mile 2’.

‘I met a guy, a lady and a baby in the house. The lady and the child slept in the room while we slept in the parlour. At night, he started touching me again and made me suck his nipples while he sucked mine; we did this every night”

Penpushing also reports that he added that the defendant, after that, requested to penetrate his anus, but he refused, and the following day the cleric was angry and said he refused to do the work of God with him last night.

The witness equally informed the court that days later, because the defendant was persistent, he agreed to anal sex and was seriously bruised afterwards because he bled for two days,stressing that the  pastor made him masturbate with the defendant twice daily while the next assignment was to drink his urine an act he said he refused at first but later did after much persistence.

Penpushing reports that the witness emphasized a that the defendant would ejaculate in his mouth and said it was power being transferred, adding that he also told him to eat his faeces, which he did once and vomited.

The survivor said his problem started when he started watching pornography on his own with the phone the defendant gave to him, adding that the defendant asked him always to watch same-sex pornography and not the opposite, and he would beat him up whenever he had a wet dream, piercing his manhood, scrotum, and stomach with a syringe.

Penpushing further reports that he revealed that on one of those days, the defendant used the middle to pierce his veins, and black blood started gushing, stating that after torturing the alleged survivor, the defendant would say he should feel the pains he felt spiritually when he disobeyed.

The survivor said that at one time, the defendant pierced his body, used St. Micheal oil on his eyes, poured grounded pepper on his body that was bleeding and asked him to eat the faeces of a dog, which he did after much force, and he vomited.

Penpushing report that the defendant, who appeared sick and was reported to have been brought from the hospital, is standing trial on a three-count charge of sexual assault by penetration and sexual assault, and offence said to be contradict Section 261 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.

Meanwhile, the defendant, however, pleaded not guilty on arraignment, while Justice Oyindamola Ogala adjourned the case until 11 December and 14 December, 2023  for continuation of trial.
