HOUSE Deputy Majority Leader and Tingog Party-list Rep. Jude Acidre welcomed on Monday the capture of Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) church leader, Pastor Apollo Quiboloy, who had been wanted for child abuse and qualified trafficking.
“These are very serious charges that, if proven, can’t go unpunished unless we live in a society devoid of rules and respect. No man is above the law, and no false God is above the law,” said Acidre, chairman of the House Committee on Overseas Workers Affairs.
“Dahil sa panatisismo, maaring ‘yung mga biktima ay hindi pa alam na inabuso sila, at ‘yan ay nakakalungkot. But the healing will begin soon,” noted Acidre.
“Make no mistake, while we are eager to move on from this nightmare, the main goal is to ensure that the soul-less abusers are held accountable and given a taste of justice that they have long avoided,” added Acidre.
Quiboloy is the spiritual adviser of former president and Davao City mayor Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
Quiboloy is the self-proclaimed “Appointed Son of God,” a title his followers subscribe to.
