The controversial pastor, who has since returned to South Africa, is now speaking out from his country, stating that he was tricked to confess on live TV. He also accused T.B. Joshua and his people of seizing his ID card and forcing him to say the words they wanted to hear.
He said:
“I never knew that I was going to be forced to speak in front of people. Those people took my ID and passport and would not give them back until I did what they wanted me to do. I went there on an invite and I only wanted to take part in worshipping, not deliverance. It was as if everything was planned before I even got there. If you listen to the video I am not the one saying those words. There is a woman next to me who is forcefully telling me what to say.”
He continued: “But I stood there hopelessly because I feared a lot of things.”
Kirsten Nematandani from T.B. Joshua Ministries has responded to his claims, saying they are false.
Nematandani said:
“He just wants to continue to be controversial. You must understand going to Nigeria is not a quick decision. He had to get a visa, get on a plane and get accommodation. He was never forced to do anything. The pictures at the church? Who brought them? He brought them himself because he wanted to. He is an adult and he can’t be forced to do anything. The problem is he just likes to cause a scene.”
