I was shocked when a man of God, Bishop
David Oyedepo who I respect so much said in
his church some days ago that his members
should slaughter any one that looks like a
terrorist. The key word there is "anyone that
looks like."
While I am 100% in support of self defense, I
abhor tribal profiling and targeting. When this
happens, innocent lives are bound to be lost.
Then in the 3rd service of his Church on
Sunday, January 25, 2015, attended by
President Jonathan, my dear Bishop Oyedepo
said in a comment directed at President
Jonathan “We will open the gates of hell on
those who oppose you.When God enthrones
you no one can dethrone you”
My Bishop's support of Jonathan is anchored on
the false premise that Buhari is planning to
Islamize Nigeria. Nothing could be further
from the truth. IBB not Buhari registered
Nigeria as a member of the Organization of
Islamic Conference (OIC). IBB, Abacha and
Abdusalami Abubakar attended OIC meetings.
No President of Nigeria has attended OIC
meetings in the last 15 years until President
Jonathan attended an OIC meeting in late
2014. Buhari never attended any OIC meeting
and refused to join the OIC even though he was
a military Head of State possessing immense
powers. How can the same Buhari now Islamize
Nigeria in a democratic setting which has the
checks and balances of the National Assembly
and the Judiciary?
Is my Bishop aware of what happened a few
days ago? At the Presidential campaign rally of
GEJ/Sambo in Jigawa state on January 21st,
2015, in the presence of President Jonathan,
Vice President Namadi Sambo stated in Hausa :
"Buhari ya dauko pastor a matsayin
mataimakinsa kunsan coci nawa yake dashi?
Yanada coci 5000, don haka karku zabesu. The
translation is - "Buhari has selected a pastor as
his running mate, do you know how many
churches he has? He has 5000 churches, so
based on that, don't vote for them".
My Bishop, Sambo used religious sentiments in
his attempt to divide the country and incite
Muslims against Christians. Sambo also said at
the rally that the PDP is the most Islamic Party
in Nigeria because nobody can be more Muslim
than him. He said that his name is Namadi
which is a derivative of Namadina, meaning
someone from the Medina in Saudi Arabia. At
the Rally in Jigawa State Sambo also stated that
he goes for the Hajj every year.
My dear Bishop, in Sambo's determination to
whip up religious sentiments and divisions, he
stated at the Jigawa state rally that all the
security chiefs in the Jonathan administration
are Muslims and based on that, those alleging
that Jonathan is supportive of Boko Haram are
not being fair. He mentioned the names of
some key ministers in the Jonathan
administration including Defence Minister,
Aliyu Gusau, NSA, Sambo Dasuki, Inspector
General of Police, Abba whom he emphasized
are all Muslims. He also mentioned all the
Muslim ministers from Kano, including Aminu
Wali, Foreign Affairs Minister and Shekarau,
Minister of Education.
Bishop, Sambo then asked if anyone could
claim to be more Muslim than him Namadi
Sambo. Then he shouted Allahu Akbar (Allah is
great several times). To close his speech he
recited the AlFatiha, (The Opening, the first
seven verses of the Holy Quran, which for
Muslims is the Mother of the Book, highly
revered by all).
My dear Bishop, Sambo's outburst against
Christians and Pastor Osinbajo would not
surprise close watchers of political events in
Nigeria but it does reconfirm the outcome of
late General Azazi thorough and extensive
investigation of Boko Haram and in which he
concluded that the PDP founded Boko Haram
and finances its terrorist activities.
MY ADVISE TO CHRISTIANS WHO RESPECT
BISHOP OYEDEPO
To Christians like me who hold Bishop Oyedepo
in great esteem this is my advise to you;
Don't let any pastor tell you who to vote for.
Does Bishop Oyedepo experience the effects of
misgovernance? Bishop is on 24-hr power
generators and he does not even know when
there is power outage. You bear the brunt of
misgovernance daily and you should know that
voting GEJ is a guarantee of another 4 years of
no electricity, corruption galore and insurgency
that will claim more lives and disintegrate
Nigeria. Vote based on what you know not on
religious or tribal sentiments!
Currently, 70% of the territory of states like
Borno, Yobe and Adamawa are under the firm
control of Boko Haram. This is the first time
this is happening in Nigeria. Boko Haram
bombing and genocide has targeted both
Christians and Muslims, churches, mosques and
schools attended by both Christians and
Muslims. Because of Boko Haram's control of
about 5% of Nigeria's territory, Nigeria's map
has been redrawn.
When a bomb goes off in a market place it does
not discriminate between Muslims and
Christians. When the village of the Chief of
Defense staff close to Mubi was attacked he did
not rescue his fellow christian villagers but he
airlifted his relatives out of danger and leaving
his fellow Christians to be slaughtered by Boko
Haram. The "polithievians," "executhieves,"
"legislooters" and "judishare" officers of
Nigeria have only one religion that unites them
and that religion is stealing and looting with
impunity.
How many of the Pastors that are telling you to
vote for Jonathan have children who are
unemployed graduates sitting at home; bear
the brunt of insecurity; send their children to
public school; patronize government hospitals
like you do or understand what the members
of their religious organizations go through on a
daily basis?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out when ASUU and
ASUP were on strike twice in 4 years thereby
leading to the loss of almost 2 years in the
academic calender of Universities and
Polytechnics?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out to condemn the
manner in which the almost 300 Chibok girls
were kidnapped? Did he condemn the manner
in which the President refused to acknowledge
that they were kidnapped? Did Bishop Oyedepo
condemn the failure of the President to rescue
the Chibok girls 9 months after they were
kidnapped by the insurgents?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out when medical
doctors went on strike twice in 4 years leading
to the death of millions of Nigerians.
Has Bishop Oyedepo spoken out against the
ongoing strike by health workers and judicial
workers in Nigeria?
All these strikes have to do with the inability of
President Jonathan and the PDP government to
abide by industrial agreements signed after
extensive bargaining among stake holders and
their insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians.
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out when 16>19,
5>26 and 7>19 in the Governors Forum
election, Rivers state house of Assembly and
Ekiti State House of Assembly in clear and
reckless violation of the 1999 Constitution of
Nigeria?
Has Bishop Oyedepo spoken out to condemn
the legalized looting of billions of dollars of
Nigeria's money taking place under the watch
of President Jonathan? Did Bishop Oyedepo
speak out to condemn the beating up of a state
High Court judge in Ekiti state by the Chief
Thug of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose and his gang
of thugs?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out to condemn the
deliberate flouting of court orders by President
Jonathan which has become like a recurring
decimal in his administration?
Let Pastors like Bishop Oyedepo who don't
know what their members are going through or
who are unable to feel the pulse of the masses,
stick to what they know how to do best which is
feeding Chist's sheep as Christ commanded
them, but let them stay out of politics. Bishop
Oyedepo should not try to influence Christians
to vote for a failed President like Jonathan. I
urge all Christians to vote their conscience to
free themselves from the 16 year bondage of
the PDP led administration.
Section 95 (3) of the Electoral Act, states that
“places designated for religious worship, police
station and public offices shall not be used for
political campaigns, rallies and processions or
to promote, propagate or attack political
parties, candidates, their political ideologies or
programmes.”
Let my darling Bishop note that his actions on
the pulpit violates this law and as a man of God
the scripture expects him to obey the laws of
the land. We are to give to Caesar what is
Caesar's and to God what is God's.

What were u smoking when you wrote this article?? I sense lack of political experience on this piece:.. I still can't find anything factual but full of emotional outbursts...

They said Goodluck is desperate to stop Buhari from running. MMmmm.

1. Who went to the court to determine the eligibility of Goodluck jonathan.

2. Who insisted on single tenure for Goodluck Jonathan.

3. Who insisted on power must return to the north at all costs.

4. who asked Goodluck to resign over and over.

5. who incited thugs with blood flowing on baboons and monkeys thus emboldening the youths to take campaign billboards, flyers of the president and attacked the president's convoy.

6. who is really afraid of a second tenure of Goodluck Jonathan.

The fraudsters,
the governors with white elephants projects abandoned,
the politicians that destroyed banks, etc.

Goodluck Jonathan is not desperate to win. Hear him. "A vote for me is not worth the life of anyone"



is the bishop not human?it's just like saying 'let no politician tell you who to vote for '
you talking about bishop cos you've not heard what also goes on in the mosque? what has given all Muslims that sudden spirit of hatred and aggressiveness? is it not the doctrines they get too?
