Christmas: Olumba Olumba Obu cautions Nigerians against eating meat, taking drinks

The Spiritual Leader of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star (BCS), Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, has warned people against eating meat and taking drinks during this festive period.

BCS Spokesman Christ Shepherd Edet Archibong, who spoke to journalists in Calabar, Cross River State, where he delivered their leader's sermon, condemned the eating and drinking practiced by Nigerians during the festive period.

"The problem of the World is lack of love.

“He loves all and does not discriminate. He preaches against the killing of animals and eating of same, for if we had love for them, we would not kill them for any reason. He also shows example.

“Prophet Isaiah prophesied that there will be no killing or eating of flesh in the New Kingdom of God and that even the lion will eat straw. If lions eat straw will humans continue to eat flesh? The BCS spokesman asked.

“It must be noted that the main theme of Christ’s teaching was love. The teachings of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu are meant to take us to that Kingdom if we adhered to it.

“He teaches that if we had love for one another there would be no discrimination, no wars, no murder, no poverty, no hunger, no court cases and no imprisonment. The World would be free of evil,” he stated.
