Pastor Sobowale, who was arraigned before a Magistrate Court sitting in Isabo, Ogun State, on Monday was accused of ráping 30-year-old Dupe Makinde, who lives in Isaje, Abeokuta, while giving her a spiritual báth which was recommended by the pastor.
The prosécuting counsel, Paul Etusi, told the court that the accused grabbed the complainant from behind while she was in a báthroom within the church premises and rapéd her.
