Pastor Chased from Church in Lagos for Impregnating Church Member

Similar Incident happened in Kenya
There was commotion on Sunday at the United Methodist Church, Mafoluku, in the Oshodi area of Lagos as members of the church chased away their pastor for allegedly impregnating his house maid.
It was learnt that the pastor, Barkuma Andrew, was stopped from leading the church seven months ago when the house maid, Grace, who was a member of the church, had complications after an abortion.
Andrew had lived with his wife, children, wife's cousin, Favour, and Grace in a three-bedroomed flat on the church premises before the incident.

It was gathered that the members had petitioned the Central Conference of the church in State to with immediate effect investigate the shameful act.
They sought for another pastor three weeks ago when the district reportedly failed to probe Andrew.
At 10 am on Sunday, members of the church showed up for Sunday service only to see that Andrew and some "unknown" people had commenced the service.
This angered the congregation which proceeded to chase out Andrew and his group from the church.
Men from the Makinde Police Division, including the DPO, were said to have intervened after the incident was reported at the station.
A member of the church and a former secretary to Andrew, Moses Sherima, said that the pastor sent his wife to her village after he impregnated Grace.
He said: "My room is opposite pastor's apartment and I was his secretary. When he started dating that girl (Grace), I called his wife's cousin, Favour, on the matter. She said Grace used to tell her whenever the pastor had s*x with her.
"At a point, I had to move upstairs when I could no longer bear it. The day that abortion happened, I was sleeping inside my room when I heard Grace screaming. I rushed there and saw blood coming out from her private parts. When the wife came back from one of her numerous journeys, he told her to send Favour away."
Another church member, John Komboroh, said the church was embarrassed by Andrew's conduct, adding that they were tired of his leadership.
He said: "The petition of adultery against the pastor had been sent to the bishop at the Central Conference. He came here, but did not do anything about it. That was why we wrote to the main body, the Southern Conference to give us another pastor. His (Andrew's) action is an embarrassment to us. We don't want him again."
The new pastor of the church, Reverend James Sunday, said: "We were about to start our service this morning when we met the old pastor and some unknown people already holding the service. I calmed down my people to avoid chaos."
