Are you Igbo ?
I asked cos only Igbo can reason as madly foolish as you have reaoned.

If Gumi declared the number of you that vote Pandora criminal as the number of lunatics in Nigeria your Igbo foolish father would be running around the street naked like a deranged lunatic.

It is fools like you that will argue the likes of Ikpeazu Ugwuayi Kalu Orji Theodore Orji Peter Obi Elechi n co are beta governor to Tinubu yet you fools ain't running to their state but to Lagos state which Tinubu as been managing.

You don't have talk...... Pastor Oyedepo was correct, absolutely correct.
You vote a party once, it failed you, you vote them again, they failed you and you're going for it the third time with even someone worse than the former, are you not Mad?

If you are asked who should we vote now you will be foaming in the mouth.

Can you explain how Tinubu will make a worse president compare to Buhari ? On what basis did you arrive at that ?

Bishop Oyedepo said more than this during Buhari first time in 2015 and even in 2019 but to avail.
Because he is not God, only deciving is gullible followers and party (PDP) members.

See his name na, Fear on. I don't think this one understands his spiritual calling.


In the Holy Bible, it was the Prophets that pronounce and ordain the King God has chosen even before the people are aware.


But today we have fearful gods of men who are politicians treading carefully so they won't offend politicians that can stop the flow of money into their ministry through declaring their political stance.

Bishop Oyedepo is a true man of God who speaks truth to power without fear, may God bless Papa Oyedepo always

Chairman of Kaduna State Peace Commission (KAPECOM) Archbishop Josiah Idowu-Fearon has said that religious leaders must see themselves as instruments of unity despite their personal political preferences.
Bishop Idowu-Fearon was reacting to a statement credited to the General Overseer of Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, ‘the number of people who vote for APC in 2023 will determine the number of mad people in Nigeria’.

Fearon argued it was wrong for any religious leader to tell his congregation to vote for any particular party.

He spoke on the sideline of a high level meeting of political parties, candidates and stakeholders for peaceful campaigns and elections in Kaduna State where 18 registered political parties, 14 governorship candidates and candidates for National Assembly and House of Assembly signed peace accord.

The event was organised by KAPCOM with support from Hope Action Progress, Legal Awareness for Nigerian Women (LANW) ActionAid, Christian Aid, Global Community Engagement and Resilient Fund (GCERF), SARVE and Global Peace Development (GPD).

The theme was: “Building consensus and mobilising collective action for peaceful 2023 general elections in Kaduna State”.

The Anglican Bishop was dismayed religious leaders wants to be seen as rulers, a situation he said is not helping the country and its democratic processes.

He said Nigerians must be allowed to vote their choices regardless of religion and tribe, stating “let candidates manifestoes and competence speak for them and not their religion or tribe.

“Religious leaders are part of the political problems we have in this country, some of them want to be rulers which is a wrong concept bringing about unnecessary sentiments.”

Idowu-Fearon who expressed fear with the way political activities are going with candidates being viewed on regional basis, averred that the elections might be inconclusive in the first ballot.


On the agitation by the South East for the presidency, he said: “Nigeria is practicing democracy which requires negotiation and not threat of any kind, adding that politics should not be seen as a do or die affairs.

“Insecurity and burning down of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in the South East will only end up drawing the region backward politically if not addressed holistically”.

He said leaders of the region are certainly not doing enough to address the situation.

“As we approach the elections, the media must be objective, religious leaders must educate their members to vote based on competence and pray for the candidates because voting is a religious responsibility.

“Party candidates must be honest and should abide by the constitution and their campaigns must be issue based devoid of hate speeches and calumny, above all we pray for a violent free conduct of 2023 general elections,” he said.

He did not fail. We would have continued with Jonathan. Things won't be this bad. We have lost our best to Japa than ever before. Oyedepo was right before because APC regime is the worst. We just got it through the back door and we are paying dearly for it.


May the will of God happen. We humans are dumb.



God forbid evil. Jonathan was a disaster. He did not start 2nd niger bridge. He did not build railways. He did not do any federal roads, he did not revive any industry, Nigeria was a rice importer under Jonathan. Now we are the biggest producer in Africa. If Jonathan was president, Boko Haram would have taken over the whole of Nigeria. We thank God for removing evil Jonathan era.

The Bishop speaks carelessly.
Men of God are supposed to be neutral like papa adeboye
Who prays for good leaders irrespective of any political party.
Trying to use the mind of your congregation as the Bishop of winners Chapel is doing, is not only sinful but criminal.
Saying " the number of votes APC gets will show the number of mad people in the country" is a big insult to Nigerians who have the right to vote any political party of choice.Am using these medium to respond to the Bishop that Nigerians are not Mad for voting their choice according to law and the constitution but rather he(the Bishop) should visit a mental clinic for such comment.
those who follow my comments and responses on Nairaland, know that I speak without fear but I speak the truth as God is for truth.
I do not worship man but God so I will mess any man that speaks carelessly up on socio media.

Nigeria is not a theocracy like the kingdom of Israel where kings were anointed by a prophet.

If indeed Oyedepo said that, he needs to watch his utterances.

That was how he made a statement then that Christians and Muslims are not the same, forgetting that Jesus Christ never discriminated against anyone.

Oyedepo behaves like a Pharisee. If he were present during the time of Jesus Christ, he would have been one of those that criticized Jesus Christ for dining with sinners.

Oyedepo is not a man of God. A true man of God will know how to watch his tongue and mind his utterances. He is a Pharisee. A hypocrite.
