“The Church dissociated itself from such immoral act of Mr Bakare and described it as being completely contrary to the core values, doctrines, beliefs and practices of the RCCG and the undiluted word of God.

“The Church, after reviewing the report of her investigation, noted that by his conduct, Bakare has not only tainted his personal reputation but has portrayed the Church in a bad light.

According to him, the RCCG Randy Pastor Gideon Bakare, caught pants down has therefore been directed to return all official items in his custody and stay off all associated connections with the Mission with immediate effect.

Olubiyi said Bakare was a part-time pastor with the church, adding that his family was also devastated by the incident.

Bakare is also senior civil servant in the Ondo State Civil Service.

Olubiyi said  Bakare could still attend any of the ministry’s parishes.

“The church is open to everybody. But the only thing is that he can no longer hold any position of responsibility in the church,” he added.

The RCCG spokesperson said Bakare could appeal the decision of the church if he was not satisfied.
