[Photo] Reaction Of Winners Chapel To Controversy Surrounding Oyedepo's Prayer For President Jonathan

The news trend on the prayer of Bishop Oyedepo has caused some people who happened to be his fans  to loose their interest in the man of God while some disagreed with the news. Some are blaming journalists, bloggers for escalating the incident beyond proportion.

Folabright Media is happy to tell you that the Winner Chapel has reacted to the allegation.

Read below;

After the controversy surrounding president Jonathan's visit to the Living Faith Church last Sunday, the church has issued a release, slamming the rumours as false.

Our attention has been drawn to a statement credited to the President and founder of the Living Faith Church worldwide, also Known as Winners’ Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo, which has gone viral.
 He was reported to have made the statement last Sunday when the President of the federal republic of Nigeria, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan came to worship at Faith Tabernacle, which is the headquarters of the ministry. The falsehood that is being spread around by mischief makers is that the Bishop, while praying for the President, said,
 “I will open the gates of hell to anyone who oppose you.” A little later, some others who in an attempt to “defend” the Bishop, came up with another quote purportedly said by Dr. Oyedepo, which is: “I will open the gates of hell to those who oppose the peace of this nation.”

Well, let’s set the records straight: The Press and Publicity Unit of the church, publishers of Faith Tabernacle News, was at the 3rd service and recorded (on tape), the President’s 6-minute speech, the congregational prayer for him and the Bishop’s blessing on the President.Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, who is also the presidential candidate of the ruling party – the PDP, came to the church as the President of this country, not as a candidate in the forthcoming elections. And Bishop Oyedepo prayed for him, as instructed in the Bible book of 1 Timothy 2:1-2, as the President of Nigeria not as a PDP standard-bearer.
