“I’ve Never Had Sεx With Any Man” – RCCG Pastor Ayorinde AdeBello Denies Homosexuality Allegations

Pastor Ayorinde AdeBello recently suspended by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) due to allegations of homosexuality has publicly denied the accusations.

In a letter dated October 28, 2024, RCCG National Overseer Sunday Akande announced that Pastor Ayorinde AdeBello and Deacon Oke Mayowa were suspended following allegations involving inappropriate conduct with young male church members.

The church also ordered an investigation led by the Special Assistant to the General Overseer on Administration, with findings expected within two weeks.

Reacting on his Instagram page, AdeBello denied the allegations, stating he has never engaged in any sexual acts with any male teenagers.

In the statement titled “My Response to the Allegations of Sodomizing Teenagers,” AdeBello claimed his comments in a WhatsApp group chat had been taken out of context.

He explained that the conversation focused on male reproductive health and self-esteem within a group for teenage boys.

The cleric said it is disheartening to see that the screenshot message has now been mischievously quoted out of context to portray him as someone who has sex with male teenagers.

Pastor Ayorinde AdeBello said “In the past few days, some allegations were made against me and some others via a blog on social media.

“I had wanted to respond immediately when it was brought to my attention, but I was advised not to, as I was not the only one named, and all of us may have been mentioned to drive engagement on the blog.

“However, as these allegations have escalated to criminal claims, I am compelled to respond as my prolonged silence has been misconstrued as an admission of guilt.

“I have NEVER demanded sex from any male as payment or gratification to give them assistance, platforms or positions. God is the only king-maker, the only One who can raise and erase kings, and give positions and platforms.

“I have NEVER had sex with Mr Jedidiah or proposed sex to him for any reason. The questions in the screenshot were asked during a conversation in a male teenager WhatsApp group where discussions regarding Male Reproductive Health and self-esteem took place.

“The teenagers were taught about the right hygiene for reproductive health, the right kind of underwear to buy, and that the girth and length determine the underwear size.

“I also explained that their sizes should not affect their self-esteem and that they are perfectly and uniquely created by God.

“It is disheartening to see that the screenshot message has now been mischievously quoted out of context to portray me as someone who has sex with male teenagers.”
