Founder and General Overseer of the Living Faith Church also known
as Winners Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo has stated that he feels good
when accused of flying private jets and maintaining them with church’s
money, according to a report by DailyPost.
The man of God said that he is not disturbed by the news carried around about him but only sees such as persecutions.
When asked in an interview with the Education Explorer during the
weekend if the allegation that he uses church money to main his jets
trouble him, the pastor said, “I feel very good. It’s an opinion.
Let me tell you what my understanding of persecution is; it’s simply an
opinion harshly expressed. And everybody has a right to his opinion.
“People who are walking in the truth are hardly bothered when
things are said negatively about them because they have nothing to hide.
The truth is I have never felt it, some say it’s not human, but I have
not. I can’t be wasting my time trying to reply lies because I have too
many things to do.
“They are doing their work, let me be doing my work too and
before they wake up in the morning, I’ve done the next one, so, it
doesn’t matter. My idea of it is that, in a football match, you have
only 22 people playing with thousands of spectators.
“And that is the way it is in the journey of life. In every
field, you find just few players and many spectators, multitudes. If we
don’t know where to place opinions, they will displace us.
“When we started Covenant University, so many people said it
would not work, now, we hosted two Nobel Laureates this week, whereas no
Nigerian university has ever hosted one in the history of university
education in Nigeria.
“Now, it is the most pronounced and preferred private
university in Nigeria. In fact, they say this is the university of the
future; that is what they say in the university community. Those who
said it could not work now have their children here because they have
changed their mind.
“Some people say how can you tell children how to dress? We
have to do that so they won’t behave like mad people on the street. They
say how can you tell them they can’t use phone? We tell them so they
would be disconnected from cultism.
“Ask me anything, I can tell you why we did it. Where are you
going to find the President of a nation with a woven hair? I can tell
you that in the next 100 years, you won’t find a male president using
earring because they would count you as irresponsible, even in the
secular world, they won’t see anything in you.
“As free as America is, have you ever seen any minister there
with earrings? The person may be qualified, but he will be termed
irresponsible. But if you train these children how to carry themselves,
it will open up their future.
“Everywhere you get to in this world, people are looking for
responsible people, who don’t only say so, but prove so. So, all the
opinions on Covenant University have died now because we didn’t stop
pursuing what we believe was right and now it has become a standard.”
