Presidency has reacted to Bishop David Oyedepo’s outrage calling for the cancellation of the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020 against churches of Christ.
The Herald earlier reported that Oyedepo has rejected the CAMA bill which gives Federal Government the right to appoint or remove board of trustees for churches.
The Bishop during a sermon on Sunday Aug 16, stated FG had no right to meddle in the affairs of the church.
However, Lauretta Onochie, media aide to President Muhammadu Buhari has called on the cleric to either adhere to the new rules or manufacture his country.
She made this known in a tweet
I hope this is not true.
If it is, Oyedepo will have to manufacture his own country and live by his own laws.
As long as he lives and operates within the entity called Nigeria, he will live by Nigerian rules and laws. He will do as he’s told by the law🙄
Enough of lawlessness
