Punch reporter allegedly held hostage in COZA



Punch reporter allegedly held hostage in COZA

A journalist, Aladunni Adelakun, who works with Punch newspapers, is allegedly being held at the Abuja branch of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly, COZA.

 

According to her friends, Adelakun went to the church this morning to carry out further investigations on Biodun Fatoyinbo who is currently enmeshed in a rape scandal when some members of the church recognised her as a feminist and journalist, ambushed her and have taken her to a different room, preventing her from taking part in the church's Sunday service.

 

Aladunni sent a text message to her friend saying the church members were acting funny.

See the tweets from her friends below

I have been saying this a long time, when I attended the church they had a hard security or militant wing. That church is not a normal church, it is a cult or something, like its own mini country and the pastor is their president and GOD and they go to peoples home to assault them and blackmail people and seize phones etc. coza so called security/usher leadership have being doing all sorts for a very long time. So I am not surprised. They have become so powerful that I can easily say COZA will launch a Christian Jihad against this president one day.

Abeg you go find wahala, let them be, nobody’s guilty till found guilty, you can’t illegally go and carry out any research without an agency behind you, be it police, court or any, honestly, they have every right to do anything to you, they can easily accuse you of stealing or anything, imagine if I came to your house to monitor your activities without your consent, that’s how you’re doing! This is an easy case

Detaining, rape, intimidation etc. It's getting too much if it's other countries by now the two part will have been in court. And several charges will be against COZA. sometimes coming out and admitting the truth save one time and energy. They will just keep disgracing themselves.

It is wrong to dishonor church cos of your selfish book. Can you do such in a mosque? Can you try it? Please do not take Coza members quietness as weakness or stupidity. We have gotten to a level where we should say enough of the insults to the body of Christ.

This is what happens when the government allows a church to become too powerful that they become the police. She should sue them, there is NO trespassing in a church. It is an OPEN house of GOD that is why they are Tax free. The public are welcomed. When they start imprisoning people then they have broken the law. Punch should sue them. The bes, they could have done was to escort her out. COZA members have been known to kidnap, imprisonments, harass and intimidate the general public since this saga started. The government should immediately start taxing them if the claim they are not open to the public. The minute you start filtering who can attend the house of “GOD” then you have become a cult and a non religious facility. COZA should be taxed like any Other business and they should be punished for kidnapping this woman doing her job. I told you fatoyinbo is running military organization. He has become too powerful.

That is why our media is useless. What she is trying to do is called investigative reporting. In fact most case all over the world has been solved by journalists. She was doing her job. They had no right to detain her.

C'mon guys, much as I will not lend any credence or support of any allegation of rape, I will like to equally condemn this condescending level we are going. Whoever or whatever u are Miss reporter, I think u should be more enlightened than this. I assume your intention is to cause further form of public consternation/odiom for the church. That was stupid! I believe u should be well guided as a reporter u claim to be. What I will find rather ridiculous will be that you might probably be a 'christian' too. Pls be sensible enough to dissociate the church from the allegations of sin of a man. Joy to the wise!
