An online pastor, Bayo Adeyinka, popularly known as “Greater Bayo”, has secured the freedom of eight inmates at the Ikoyi Correctional Centre, Lagos, to commemorate his 50th birthday.

Adeyinka paid their fines as part of a prison outreach on Monday, during a brief event held at the centre’s chapel.

The pastor, who is also an author and a banker, said that the outreach was borne out of the need to facilitate freedom of inmates in line with biblical injunctions. (NAN)
