Bishop David Oyedepo has let rip at politicians in the country for celebrating the recent presidential and national assembly elections which he claimed were marred by rigging.
Oyedepo, who is the presiding Bishop and founder of the Living Faith Church, made the comments while addressing congregants on Sunday at the Church headquarters in Ota, Ogun State.
The Bishop mocked the irregularities that riddled the exercise in some polling units, but offered prayers 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 digital 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 was one of the clergymen who facilitated the reconciliation of former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The fiery cleric had warned of God’s wrath ahead of the polls, saying Nigeria would have imploded but for prayer offerings of the faithful.
