The Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide also known as Winners Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo, has, yet again attacked the government of President Muhammadu Buhari.
LagosTimes reports that Oyedepo while delivering a sermon during the second service of the church at the Faith Tabernacle, Ota, Ogun State, described Buhari’s government as the worst in the history of Nigeria.
The audacious cleric also condemned the government move to rehabilitate and reintegrate repentant Boko Haram while those who called out the government incompetence are being hounded and victimized by the government.
He described as ridiculous the hate speech bill being sponsored by Senator Sabi Abdullahi, saying it is the most stupid idea anyone would come up with
Oyedepo said, “The government in this country is making a draconian law – hate speech. They said if you speak hatefully, you have committed murder. Out of someone who says I will kill you and the one who kills, who has committed a crime? I don’t understand which kind of animal farm we live in.
“I said stop stepping on my toes and you said that is hate speech but somebody kills and he is walking free on the streets. This is the most stupid and nonsensical ideal anybody can think of.
I said you are bad and you said that is a crime. Must I say you are good when you are bad?
“In my view you are bad and you shouldn’t be a leader. I have the right to say so. As far as I am concerned, I am a true born and thoroughly-bred Nigerian, an intelligent one. In my view this is the worst thing that has happened to Nigeria — this government. It is the worst and in fact it is like a curse.
“I have been here for some time and I led the first prayer and fasting for Nigeria in 1979. I am not a baby in the affairs of Nigeria. This is the worst government, a government with no direction. Their days are numbered. I can tell you as a prophet that their days are numbered.”
