President and founder of the Winners Chapel Worldwide,
Bishop David Oyedepo, has slammed an Islamic cleric, Sheikh Sani Yahaya Jingir,
over the latter’s recent comments against Christians in Nigeria.
At a political function in Kano State earlier this month,
the Islamic cleric claimed that Nigeria belongs to the Muslim region,
insinuating that Christians are secondary in the country.
Sheikh Jingir, who was defending his support for the All
Progressives Congress, APC, Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket ahead of the
January election, said his religion outnumbered Christians.
His remark stirred anger in Christian communities across the
country, with many Nigerians, including some Muslims, calling for his arrest.
Reacting, Oyedepo, during a sermon captured in a viral
video, countered the claim, urging those supporting the Islamic cleric to watch
the crowd in churches and retract their comments.
“Watch Redemption Camp, Salvation Ministries, Dunamis and
other ministries in Nigeria.
“And someone will stand and say Nigeria is an Islamic
nation? Is he mad? Yes, he must be mad”, he said.
Oyedepo further predicted strange happenings within the
country in the next one year.
“Now, watch, there shall be strange happenings between now
and the next twelve months in Nigeria”, he added.
