The general superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church Pastor William Kumuyi is presently under fire on social media over the alleged abuse of an 11-year-old pupil of Deeper Life High School in Akwa Ibom State.
Recall a parent, Deborah Okezie whose son is a junior secondary school one student had in a Facebook video alleged that her son Don Davis was starved, as well as molested by some senior pupils of the school.
The school management has suspended the principal Solomon Ndidi to allow seamless investigation while Akwa Ibom State Government has also waded in.
However, Nigerians on Twitter on Monday called for action from Kumuyi, urging him to address the matter personally in the light of the church’s reputation.
Reactions from netizens:
Let's not get too distracted by Burna, Wizkid and Davido's saga in Ghana….
Pastor Kumuyi needs to do something, we can't afford to let this one slide …

Agreed, I want us to pursue this case for the sole purpose of making sure the animals involved in molesting innocent Don Davis get punished, I do not want a situation where some people will turn it into attacks on Pastor Kumuyi who we don't even know his stand on the issue yet.
