Innocent girls at the Light of Hope Orphanage has finally describe how the owner of the orphanage, Pastor Olatayo Atunde, raped them repeatedly. From outside, the Light of Hope Orphanage in Akute looks like every other orphange. But the things that go on inside are gory:
“Daddy started sleeping with me when I was 10. I have two blood brothers at the orphanage who I reported to but they have not been able to do anything about it. On one occasion, when he was sleeping with me, I ran into another room but he chased me and warned me never to run away from him again.” ––said one of the girls he allegedly raped.
According to Punch, the orphanage which was founded in 1996 by Pastor Atunde receives donations from multinational companies, non-governmental organisations, and other concerned members of the public who were deceived to believe that Pastor Atunde has genuine love for the vulnerable children.
However, recent sexual allegations by some of the female inmates have shattered the positive image the orphanage once enjoyed. It all started when two young girls from the home told their secondary school teacher that they were raped by Daddy (Pastor Atunde), who runs the facility.
One of the orphans 14-year-old Atinuke [not real name] confirmed that he slept with her and many other girls at the orphanage. Atinuke, who is now in custody of an NGO – Project Alert on Violence Against Women – said she lost her virginity to Pastor Atunde at the age of 10 and has lost count of the number of times he has had sex with her.
She said, “I also reported the matter to the orphanage administrator, Aunty Hannah, and she said she would address the matter but daddy continued to rape me. Daddy usually raped us around 2am in his room. His wife does not always sleep in his room. She sleeps at the crèche where the younger orphans are staying.”
Pastor Atunde was also alleged to have sacked one of the employees at the orphanage that dared to challenge him. Another orphan, Salewa [not real name], told Punch that she was barely 12 when he started having sexual relations with her.
She said she had a sister at the orphanage who was in the university. Salewe disclosed that she had also caught Pastor Atunde having sex with another orphan.
“Daddy has been having sex with at least 10 of us. We are mostly between the ages of 8 and 14. I reported to Aunty Hannah and when she challenged daddy, he laid a curse on me,” she said.
Pastor Atunde has been released by the police, they say they are investigating.
“Atunde receives donations from banks, multinationals, churches and other members of the public and the smartest thing for him to do right now, is to relocate the children and open another orphanage in a different name if possible. Most of the girls were relocated to another property within the area while others were taken to the Shangisha area of Lagos State. The police should not have granted him a bail.”
That pastor is very mad,he has to be purnished,he is a man of devil and a motherfucker crazy pastor

Somtym ago, its ws one Rev.

Who told you that moslem mallams dont do worse to under aged girls in their karatu..child defilement is no offence in islam..which makes it worse. Children molestation is a human problem. So spare me ur ignorance in the name of religion
Sexual assault and insurgencies are more common among the muslims.former Zamfara state govnor,yerima married a 13 yrd old girl..your prophet muhamed was sleeping with under age girls like 9yrs old.
While your alqeda and boko haram brothers are busy killing people.. Better give your life to Jesus..
The 9yrs old been ur sis she?keep on talkin rubbish nd I would see hw u rot in hell.dat aside not all clerics(muslim nd xtian) are good leaders nd nt all r b people,its left of u choose d one u will follow
Perhaps he had good intention when he started the orphanage but along the line the devil took control and he couldn’t resist the devil. Too bad! Pastor, it is unfair, you need to ask for forgivness and receive your punishment accordingly.
The pastor should be stooned to death
Can dis be possible; d man is not a man of God, and he must be paid for dat devilish acts, chekena!
Badt man u nvr dull on urself…
Govt should take ownership of the place.
i dnt knw wat’s rong wit dis pastos,were in d bible de say u shld marry 1 wife.d pastor shld convert 2 islam so dat he can marry 4 wives and enjoy his life.
Let God settle ds case.shalom. His punishment is more dan what u can immagine.
God will not forgive him if truely he is involve in this kind of evil act. How could he? A pastor for that matter, but nevertheless, God will help us.
while men slept, the enemy sow tares among wheats
People are so bad…why wl he b doin his devilish act under d umbrella of being man of God? Pls stop black painting christianity..what do u want d muslim counterparts 2 say abt us? Dis man needs 2 face the wrath of d law.
Dis calls 4 islamic law, d idiot shuld be stoned to death
Oh no! this is pathetic and embarrasing but the fall of a man is not the end of his life,may u receive divine mercy.
d sepherd dat defiles d sheep…aru! abormination!
Kinda amazing.. A pastor molestin kidz? God v mercy!!!
Dats a develish act the pastor is wicked at it been it was his daughter would’t he have killed the person melestin his daughter he should be dealt with so dat iyt wil serve as a lesson
Fuck pastors……
Dis is serious,never knw dat pastor can do such cos I knw him
did d pastor tink he can run away,y some pastor r distroy d honour of d other pastor,he is a folish man may God judge him wherever his hinding
Agent of satan
Let’s commit him to the Almighty God,OKAY! Let God judge him. He has d final judgement in His Hand. Becos,of d anointing on him. Meanwhile.it’s devil’s work,our enemy not d Pastor himself! May God deliver him!
That man is not in line with God…He has gone out of path..He needs deliverance..
These Are The Type Of Human Beigns I Love 2Tek In2 Captivity And Chain Dem Up.Hiz Dick Needs a Medical Surgery Frm My Sharp Swords.
He is a typical man of d devil… Lord have mercy!
Justice or what is ur name instead of u to correct d bad pastor, u ar saying different thing may God heal u, bird of d same feathers, u better cum to d right religion instead of raping small gals marry anoda wife. Islam is d religion of peace
Lets be conscious of what we say against an anointed,nor matter what he has done,l think we should learn a lesson from that and also pray for Him because God still love him if he will repent.We can’t comprehend the full nature of GOD.
Let us learn how to treat minister of GOD from the life of David and Saul in the Bible.
Shallom.
uhm dis pple calls christian dey re shameless human bn on d earth cos dis is not d first tym a pastor or rev cautht wit under age in d name of blessing, same of ur so call men of god used 2 pregnat dere follower all in d name if blessing.I don’t knew he animal christian re pls try 2 be came in 2 religion of Allah so day u will nt reg rat in d here after.Allah is great
@ Abdullahi, your prophet mohamed was a confirmed rapist and a terrorist so there is no room for comparison here. Christianity or Islam doesn’t have anything to do with the case at hand. The man in question has done evil and needs to repent and beg those little girls he defiled for forgiveness also
Wow! Dat pastor strong o….. Not 1 ,2,3…but many..lol! I tink de should provide enogh porn stars 4 him 2 enjoy more.
Why wld the police released him? Fourteen children, for God’s sake,what else are they investigating?! Are trying to say dt those children may be lying? Incompetent fools!!!
Abdulahi, wat u wrote doesnt ve any meaning may be u shld read thru and correct urself. As for d muslim illiterates calling xtian names, if u ve anything dat looks like brain in ur head just condemn d act by one man and stop d senseless generalisations. (like i said, if u ve anything dat looks like brain in ur head!)
May God have mercy on d pastor…. And 2 all d muslim who thought dat d rite tin they should do z 2 abuse d xtians… Thunder go fire una
spiritual congeeeee ,everybody na pastor even hooligan.he is not a pastor but a rapist,bastard ape
@ Kelly I won’t Cal anybody an illitrate, but pls stop saying something u don’t knw, prophet Muhammad.( SWS)wasn’t a difiller in any way, I guest u guys got d wrong imfo abt him, cus he told us 2 believe in jesus nd make it article of faith 2 believe in jesus, no muslim is a muslim is he doesn’t believ in jesus, d only different is we don’t worship god in human form we believ he was d mightys massenger God nd u can’t go 2 d father but throug him, cus as we read in d holly bible jesus said, I can on my own do nothing, what I hear I judge dat means he is not God neither d son of god, jesust was a muslim, we follow jesus more dan cristian, we also read in d holly bible, nd he went a little futher nd felt on his face lyk d muslim do nd pray more enestly 2 God allmighty 4 help wen jews were abt 2 crusified him, he doesn’t wanna die, did u pray lyk jesus peace be upon him? We also read in d holly bible, jesus went 2 his deciples in d upper room nd said “shramu alaikim” in hiburu meaning peace be upon 2 u lyk d muslim do. Did u say such 2 ur fello brothers? So if christian is 2 follw jesus, we r more christian dan d christian themself, we respect him, we love him.
