Newlywed pastor steps back from ministry after apologising over past affairs

Apostle Sam Adegoke of Elijah Generation Church in Akure, Ondo state has stepped back from public ministry after apologising for past sexual relationships he had before his marriage. In a statement released on Monday, Adegoke expressed deep regret for his actions and acknowledged that they fell short of the standards of holiness, integrity, and self-control expected of a Christian minister.

He has been involved in counselling and reflection, taking full responsibility for his conduct and asking for prayer and support during his process of transformation.
