Apollo Quiboloy, the disappointed ‘son of God’
Published By admin with Comments 0
MANILA, Philippines—The year 2024 saw the arrest of Apollo Quiboloy for child abuse, sexual abuse and qualified trafficking cases.
Quiboloy is a televangelist known for designating himself as the “appointed Son of God.” He is also the founder of Kingdom of Jesus Christ, the Name Above Every Name, or KJC, based in Davao.
But the path to Quiboloy’s arrest was not easy. It took several subpoenas, a warrant of arrest, and a grueling and extremely tense 16-day police operation to finally catch what had been the country’s most high profile fugitive.
The televangelist’s arrest wouldn’t have been possible without the Senate panel on women’s probe into Quiboloy’s alleged crimes which was launched on December 11, 2023.
Senator Risa Hontiveros filed Senate Resolution No. 884, directing the panel on women, which she heads, to look into the alleged involvement of Quiboloy and his sect in several criminal activities.
Among these cases are large-scale human trafficking, rape, and other rights abuses committed allegedly by KJC under Quiboloy’s leadership.
