2020-07-27 19:56:25"Head pastor, welcome," Mr and Mrs Osagbai greeted.
The head pastor Mr Fredrick was shocked to see the tension in the room , he stared at all the people in the room confused and wondered what had happened.
"Peace be unto you all," he finally said. He took a seat and prayed for some seconds before asking what the situation was about.
"The past has repeated itself again!" Isere mother cried out, tears rolling down her cheek as she paced around the room.
"What is going on?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Pastor, you won't believe what I am about to tell you, the church name has been tainted by those who the youths look up to," Mrs Williams spoke confusing Pastor Fredrick.
"What is happening?" Pastor Fredrick asked, he didn't understand what she just said.
"Katherine here is pregnant and for no one else but her father!" Mrs Williams spat out.
"Jesus is Lord!" Pastor Fredrick spoke. He began chanting prayers.
"I never did such! I would never commit such outrageous crime!" Isere father spat out.
"Oisanobua rejemime!" Isere mother spat out. (Lord have mercy)
"Calm down everyone, I need to understand this situation first. Pastor Mrs Williams, you mean, Katherine here was impregnated by her father?" Pastor Williams asked.
"Yes pastor," Mrs Williams confirmed.
"I never did such, I swear to you I never did such! God watches us all and I never did such!" Her father lamented.
"Daddy please don't beat me at night," Isere cried out.
Pastor Fredrick sighed, he was confused, he didn't know how to address the issue or where to begin from.
He stood up from his seat and began to pray, Mrs Williams too joined him whilst Isere's mother kept chanting, oisanobua rejemime! (Lord have mercy)
The room was silent for a second as pastor Fredrick asked them all to take a seat which they did as told.
"Katherine, were you really molested by your father?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
Isere bit her bottom lips, she wiped her tears with the back on her palm. "Yes sir." Isere spoke.
"You evil spirit!" Isere father shouted.
"Pastor Osagbai call down," Pastor Fredrick said to him.
"Pastor Osagbai, are you denying the accusation?!" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Yes, i would never sleep with my daughter, that would be the last thing I do," he spoke with a pained voice.
"My parents always locked me in the house, they took me to an all girls day school because they didn't want to talk to boys, I was forbidden from having friends except they attended deeper life Christian Church. They beat me whenever I said words like sex and love. They forbid me from saying merry christmas and never allowed me watch the television." Isere cried out.
"Do you know, my mother didn't want me to go to the university because she said she won't be able to monitor my movement anymore? She also made sure I didn't use phone at all." Isere cried out, she knelt on the floor and cried out loud the more.
"Sister Katherine it is fine," Mrs Williams consoled.
"My daddy didn't want me talking to guys because he was in love with me!" Isere deadpanned.
"Blood of Jesus!" Mrs Williams spoke.
"I never did such, I swear with my life that I never did such. I would never do such," Isere father lamented whilst Isere mother kept crying.
"It has happened again!" Isere mother mouthed.
"What has happened again Mrs Osagbai?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Pastor sir, if you think I am lieing, ask them why they forbade me from those things i mentioned earlier?" Isere spat out with no remorse.
"Ask my mother why she slapped me for saying i wanted to be an architect, ask my father why he had to take me to school and bring me back home daily and even to the extent of asking a teacher to monitor me back in secondary school?!" Isere raised her voice.
"Ask them why I was never allowed to use phone and why I was never allowed outside of the house? Ask them why they didn't let me watch the television and why they made me do all they wanted without protest, ask them why?!" Isere shouted.
"Calm down Katherine," pastor Fredrick sighed, he kept praying inside of him, asking the Lord to help him handle the case.
"Did all she just say true?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Did you alway lock her in the house?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"It was for a reason pastor!" Isere mother cried out.
"Were all her accusations true?" Pastor Fredrick asked again.
"It was for a reason, we did it for a reason!" Isere mother cried out.
"What could that reason be that you had to put her in the situation and about the molestation, I am still coming to that but what were your reasons? Why did you deprive her from so many?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Another part is, my mother never told me what sex was, so I didn't know until my father started molesting me!" Isere cried out.
"Lier! Lier! Why are you doing this Isere?!" Her father asked.
"Inimure zegeyen?! Inimure zegeyen?!" Her father shouted out loud. (Why are you lieing?)
"He is bribing me not to expose him!" Isere cried out. "He is threatening to kill me as usual!" Isere shouted.
"Munu egbe!" Isere's mother shouted.
(Shut up!)"Isere he didn't say so, why are you doing this, why are you lieing?!" Isere mother cried out.
"Mummy please I can't lie anymore, please don't beat me at night but the pressure is too much."
"Pastor Osagbai, I don't know what to say but I have few questions to ask." Pastor Fredrick spoke.
"Have you ever done all Isere's mentioned before?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Yes but I have never molested her." He spoke.
"Why did you lock her and deprive her from so many things?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"It was for a reason Head pastor," Isere mother cried out.
"What could be that reason that you had to put your daughter in that situation?" Pastor Fredrick asked.
"Pastor, I will talk about this, it has to do with my past!" Isere's mother cried out.
