Bishop Oyedepo Denied US Visa.. by dietola01(m): 8:48am On Jan 31, 2020
Olawale Olaleye

A mild drama, thursday, played out at the Lagos office of the Embassy of the United States as the founder of Faith Tabernacle in Ota, Ogun State and Living Faith Church Worldwide, otherwise known as Winners’ Chapel International, Bishop David Oyedepo was denied visa.

But an ace comedian, Abovi Ugboma, popularly known as Bovi was lucky with the embassy as he was issued the visa.

However, his wife, Kris Asimonye, was not as lucky as she was denied the travelling document.

THISDAHY gathered that the embassy did not give any other reason except the standard default explanation that the Bishop did not qualify for visa renewal in its assessment and urged him to try again.

Heaven was, however, let loose, when the obviously flustered preacher and businessman, created scene whilst querying the grounds for his refusal.

Insider said he told the embassy he had been traveling to the states as far back as 1980s and had not violated any rules or committed any crime to have warranted being denied a renewal of his visa.

According to the source, he immediately sent for his bodyguards to get his phones so he could make some calls, but the embassy allegedly told him he could not make calls within the precincts of the visa-issuing section of the embassy.

When THISDAY contacted the embassy for clarifications on why the popular Bishop was denied visa, a staff of the embassy in the media department, requested that an email be sent with the questions and promised to respond as soon as possible.

Curiously, the embassy, believed to be swift to responding to mails, neither acknowledged nor responded to the email sent since 5.05p.m. yesterday till the newspaper went to bed.

Embassy sources however hinted of the possibility that the popular preacher might have made some calls to individuals that would intervene on his behalf and the visa eventually issued.

In the mail sent by THISDAY, three questions were asked: “One, we understand that there was serious drama earlier today, when Bishop David Oyedepo was denied the US visa. However, because we could verify our facts from other applicants at the embassy today, our question, therefore, is on what grounds was a Bishop Oyedepo, known across the globe, denied a visa?

“Our sources in-house had also hinted that given his connection, the CG might likely be contacted and his visa might be issued eventually through a referral. If that’s true, why deny him in the first place?

“We also learnt that the trend of denying prominent Nigerians visa is rampant now, including the Abuja embassy. Is it part of plans to clampdown on Nigerians of a certain category and social status and on what basis?”

Are u not aware that the U.S. has banned Nigerians from entering their country...
Btw. Oyedepo has been travelling to the U.S. since the 80s he only went there to renew his visa and they asked him to try again. Not denied for applying for a U.S. visa.

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

What ? Is it possible that our very own Pastor Oledepo of the Holy Slap fame, could be denied a visitor's visa to enter the United States of America, known to Nigerians as "God's own country" ?

Here is an alarming quote from the above news report, which clearly illustrates how close those American Embassy staff were, to being ANOINTED with a few carefully calibrated, brain-resetting HOLY SLAPS, in response to that DASTARDLY and IMPUDENT visitor's visa rejection.

"Heaven was, however, let loose, when the obviously flustered preacher and businessman, created a scene of drama whilst querying the grounds for his refusal.

Insider said he told the embassy he had been traveling to the states as far back as 1980s and had not violated any rules or committed any crime to have warranted being denied a renewal of his visa.

According to the source, he immediately sent for his bodyguards to get his phones so he could make some calls, but the embassy allegedly told him he could not make calls within the precincts of the visa-issuing section of the embassy."

What ? Please just get me Donald Trump on the phone NOW. I can reason with the President, and make sure that those misguided rogue embassy staff who denied Miracle Pastor Oledepo his visa, are all duly punished and demoted after they have tendered their remorseful apologies to Pastor Oledepo, and also to his immediate supervisor, who is none other than Jeeeeeesus Christ himself, of the God fame.

As a message to the United States Embassy staff who so callously PREVENTED our Pastor Oledepo from making phone calls within the US consulate premises, let me just conclude by saying that Pastor Oledepo does have legitimate cause to place frequent phone calls for consultations with Almighty God, yet, the good pastor is magnanimous enough to forgive you all, on the condition that you hastily repent and renounce your wayward misdeeds, then in further demonstration of your humbled contrition, please, IMMEDIATELY grant Pastor Oyeah his divinely-ordained US visitor's visa, when next he applies to fly one of his four private jets to American soil, where so many souls await His salvation, in Jeeeeeesus name, Amen.

God of men!!

He made call to some people who facilitated his issuance of visa.

If it was his church member that was denied a visa, Bishop would have advised him to pray to God instead of advising him to call people that will work for issuance of his visa.

Pastor Oyeah's Holy Warriors are in da house. I must confess though, that I am absolutely terrified at the prospect of being targeted for comprehensive annihilation by a strategic Holy Slap, or even by an "Everlasting Cause", which certainly does not sound like a cause to celebrate, all things considered.

Speaking of my chickens, how did you know that I have a big rooster ? Are you a sooth sayer, a marabout, a spiritual adviser, or a fortune teller who gazes into his own glass balls, by any chance ? If you are, I want to hire you NOW.

Have your personal assistant call my secretary NOW, and let us do lunch without delay.
