Bishop David Oyedepo of the
Living Faith Church has lampooned the presidential and National Assembly
elections which he believes were rigged.
Speaking during the Sunday
service at the Church headquarter in Ota, Ogun State, Oyedepo mocked the
irregularities that marred the exercise and also prayed that Nigeria would not
experience another war as a result of the remaining elections.
Oyedepo said: “Other
developed countries around the world had developed their mode of voting into a
digitised method, but it’s a shame that in Nigeria, we still queue up to vote,
and somebody would still be intimidated by thugs. With these, it’s a shame how
politicians in this part of the world are proud of elections marred with
rigging.
“In Covenant University,
any student caught indulging in examination malpractice, is gone. It does not
matter if his or her father is the head of United Nations or not.”
Oyedepo continued by
praying against any form of bloodbath in any part of Nigeria as a result of the
forthcoming governorship and House of Assembly elections:
“Every spirit of thuggery
in Nigeria shall be silenced and every forces that would not let Nigeria rest
shall be laid to rest and silenced forever.”
