General overseer of the Faith Tabernacle church otherwise known as Winners Chapel has spoken out against his detractors who he said were jealous.
Speaking in a now viral video, the bishop said that pastors have been flying in style since before a lot of people were born and it was therefore not a new thing.
He also noted that pastors had paid their dues and owed no one any explanation as to how they go about their affairs.
The video which was shared on YouTube on Saturday, January 27, also disclosed that people should stop being jealous and never pass negative comments on churches.
He said in the video; “We have been flying jet before you went to school, we have been flying no for 22 years. We do not owe anybody and we have not taken overdraft from any bank. You better control your jealousy, washing your mouth against the church of Christ is a risk, a curse again you have broken. The church is the most value adding constitution in Nigeria. See how many universities are funded by churches in Nigeria.”
Recall that Bishop Oyedepo is one of the pastors to have come under fire from people under the #freethesheeple movement championed by OAP Freeze.
Oyedepo stated that many seem to forget that a lot of pastors are also private businessmen and have made their money from their private practice.
