Assistant Pastor, Mike Oliseh Defiles Church Member’s Twin Daughters | General Overseer’s Reaction Will Shock You
The Assistant Pastor of the Anointed Chosen Vessel Ministry, Okota, Lagos; Mike Oliseh has been detained at the Lagos State Police Command Headquarters, Ikeja; for allegedly defiling the 12-year-old twin daughters of his church member and close friend.
According to PUNCH, Oliseh, 54, allegedly raped one of the twins while he inserted his fingers in the private parts of the other twin.
Oliseh, an indigene of Delta State, and the twins’ father lived on Ago Palace Way, Okota, Lagos State. After a while, the suspect who lived opposite the twins’ father compound relocated his wife and four children (a girl and three boys) to the Ikotun area of Lagos while he retained his apartment at Okota, where he reportedly stayed during the week before returning to his family in Ikotun during weekends.
Apart from being a pastor, Oliseh is also said to be into borehole drilling, and had employed the services of the victims’ father whose bus was always used to convey equipment to sites when he had jobs to do.
The two through that, became friends and Oliseh seized the opportunity to win over the Twins’ father and his family over to his church.
The victims’ mother traveled on a business trip in 2017, during which time Oliseh started sleeping in their home.
While his friend was asleep, Oliseh defiled the first twin and threatened to withdraw support to the family if she told anyone about the incident, the first victim said she could not remember how many times Oliseh raped her.
Narrating her ordeal, the 12-year old said:

“He started it (rape) last year. He used to come to sleep in our house. He said there was heat in his apartment. So, while my twin sister and I would sleep on the floor, he used to sleep on the bed with my father. While my dad slept, he would come to the floor and sleep with me. He has done it many times.
He put his male reproductive organ in my private parts. He threatened that if I told my father, he would not take him to work again. He and my father eat and work together, and they both sleep on the same bed.”
Accordingly, it was learnt that the crime had gone undetected until recently when the suspect attempted to sleep with the second twin. It so happened that while he was struggling to pull off the other twin’s pants, an elderly woman saw him.
The girls’ mother recounted:
“On that Thursday, my daughter did not go to school; she was alone in the compound. Mike (Oliseh) came and chased her. The girl ran into the backyard to hide. He went there and started pulling her pants; the girl shouted.
An elderly woman, who came for omugo (the Igbo practice of female parents tendering their daughters’ newborn babies) in our compound and was in the room, saw him. When she opened the door, Mike quickly brought out a phone and pretended to be speaking to my husband on the telephone. He said he wanted to give my daughter something, but she was not ready to collect it. He then put his phone in his pocket and left.
The woman, who observed that he did not dial any number on the phone before putting it to his ear, called my husband to ask the children what his friend had been doing to them. That was how the secret was blown open. He slept with my first daughter regularly, but had only succeeded in inserting his fingers into the private parts of my second daughter.”
She added that she was disappointed because Oliseh was a trusted pastor and family friend. The girls’ father said he wouldn’t have believed the allegations against his ‘friend’ if he had not confessed to the crime.

“I trusted him because I thought that he was a man of God. I have a bus and whenever he had a borehole drilling job, I used the vehicle to take the equipment to site. He would pay me for the service. He also took my family to his church.
Also, whenever my wife traveled, I would take my children to his wife’s place in Ikotun. Whenever I cooked, we would eat together from the same plate. I never suspected anything. Even when it was noticed the first time, I doubted it. However, when he agreed to it and said what he did was little, I became weak.”
The case was reported at the Lagos State Office of the Public Defender and the victims were referred to the Mirabel Centre, Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja.
A social worker at the OPD said the results of the tests carried out on the victims confirmed that the girls had been defiled.
The social worker stated:
“In fact, it was when the results came out that we reported at the Ago Police Station. When we got to his house, he was not around. The general overseer of the church had called the victims’ parents and was reprimanding them for involving the police. The man said since he had already agreed to settle it for them, they should not have involved the police.
We just told the family to play along. So, they agreed with the general overseer and that gave the suspect a false sense of security. He returned to his house and that was how he was arrested. He was transferred to the Gender Unit on Tuesday.”
The Director, OPD, Mrs Olayinka Adeyemi assured that justice would be done. She said:
“The innocent girls were defiled by a so-called pastor under the guise of helping their father. It is very sad. While we will ensure that the girls get justice and the perpetrator is punished, it is important that parents should be watchful and careful.”
The state Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Chike Oti confirmed the incident, adding that the suspect would be arraigned at the end of investigation.

Speaking about Oliseh’s case via her Instagram page, Lagos Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Dolapo Badmus wrote:
“I still cannot understand the reason while a father will abuse his own daughter sexually?! Some fathers are so pedophilic in nature that they prey on their own daughter or ward, it is barbaric. In the course of my duty I have seen a father having sexual intercourse with his own 13year old daughter and still give her medication to prevent her getting pregnant ???????? it’s so appalling. The painful thing is that the mother of this particular girl feigned ignorance of the action and concluded the girl is evil, wanting to disrupt her family….The long and short was that both parents were charged to court with an NGO taking over the care of the poor girl…
Most of the times sexual violation occurs, it’s been perpetrated by a close ally of the victim like Father, Uncle, Teacher, Brother, even Pastor or Imam etc….they usually capitalize on the familiarity to achieve their aim!
How I wish legislators can amend laws to prescribe death sentence for RAPISTS, this is getting too much!”
