The Nigerian Police have granted bail to Pastor Paul Adefarasin, founder of The House on the Rock Church, following the recovery of a stun gun amid an ongoing investigation into an alleged altercation in Lagos.
The controversy erupted after a video surfaced online allegedly showing Pastor Adefarasin brandishing a pistol during a traffic dispute.
The footage quickly went viral, drawing public outrage and prompting calls for his arrest and prosecution.
In response, the police launched an investigation and later recovered a stun gun from the pastor.
Though specific details of the bail conditions remain unclear, the development suggests heightened scrutiny of the incident by law enforcement.
Pastor Adefarasin, a prominent televangelist with a wide following in Nigeria and abroad, is also known for his philanthropic work and message of hope and empowerment.
The incident has sparked mixed reactions. While some members of the public have defended the cleric, others have criticized his alleged actions, describing them as a misuse of influence and a potential threat to public safety.
The case continues to stir debate over issues of personal security, responsible conduct, and the expectations placed on public figures in Nigeria.
