A former nun has accused a priest of sexual assault. Rev. Sister Anastasia Kinse made the claim on Arise News. She served under the Auchi Catholic Diocese in Edo State.
The broadcast aired on Monday, 13 October, this year. Kinse says she was dismissed after exposing alleged priest misconduct. She insists she has proof to support each claim.
What she told Arise News
Kinse says a priest asked her to spend a week. She refused the invite and reported the matter to leaders. For legal context, see our Lagos Evans re-arraignment case report.
Alleged belt incident and aftermath
She adds that another priest wrapped his belt on her waist. He called it a measurement for clothes, she says. She links later trauma to that pressure inside the convent.
Her claim includes a dismissal from the congregation and school. She says leaders framed her reaction as madness over time. She insists the evidence exists and will stand public scrutiny.
Kinse joined the Archangels Sisters in 2015 as a postulant. Soon after, she reported unwanted contact from men in clerical roles. The 2016 parish invite forms a key part of her story.
The claim remains one side of an ongoing public matter. We will follow verified updates from both Church and law.
Commenters say victims need clear, safe channels for reports. Kinse says support came late and weak during her ordeal. Her account highlights fear, power gaps, and pressure inside convent life.
