A Nigerian pastor, Michael Oluronbi and his wife Juliana, have been sentenced to jail for 34 years in the UK after Oluronbi was found guilty of s3xual offences against six women and a man.
He abused children and adults for over 20 years after convincing the victims to take part in “spiritual bathing to cleanse them of evil spirits.”
Olurnobi was jailed for 34 years for offences of multiple r@pes of members of his congregation.
He was convicted of “fifteen counts of r@pe, seven counts of indecent ass@ult and two counts of s3xual ass@ult and at least 88 separate occasions on which he r@ped his victims.”
Birmingham Crown Court heard that some of the victims became pregnant multiple times, but Olurnobi would take them to abortion clinics, as a cover-up for the abuse.
His wife was jailed for 11 years for three counts of aiding and abetting r@pe, as she assisted Olurnobi in arranging ab@rtions for the victims.
Both defendants will be required to sign the s£x offenders’ register for life.
Oluronbi was linked to a Christian church in Edgbaston, Birmingham, the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, whose roots were in Nigeria. He had set up his own splinter group at another address and from where he began the “spiritual bathing.” The jury heard how the offences took place in Birmingham and London.
