We're not your wives, stop using us as bedmates — Rev'd Sister tells priests

Revd Sr Kinse Anastasia




Rev’d Sr. Kinse Anastasia of Veritas University, Abuja, has raised alarm on social media, accusing some Catholic priests and church authorities of sexually harassing and maltreating Reverend Sisters.

According to her, Sisters are often demeaned and reduced to “ornaments in Habits,” treated as though their sole purpose is to satisfy priests’ desires.

She revealed that some priests even go as far as telling them that “Sisters are meant to be priests’ wives,” a claim they act upon without shame.

Anastasia also alleged that many Church leaders deliberately silence Sisters and make them vulnerable, while some superiors misuse their positions of authority.

However, she did not spare Sisters who compromise their vows, warning that such actions weaken the dignity of consecrated life.

In her words, “Religious Sisters are not priests’ wives. We are not bedmates. We are women of God. The Church must do better because God is watching.” (Nairaland)
