Christmas origin: “Sense will fall on us one day,” Pastor Sam. Adeyemi prophesies

Pastor Sam Adeyemi of Daystar Christian Center has spoken against the debate on the origin of Christmas as he advised Nigerians to focus on issues bothering their country

The debate on the origin of Christmas was sparked after Dr. D.K Olukoya of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, MFM, stated that his church doesn't celebrate Christmas because of its origin.

In reaction to the debate, Sam Adeyemi stated that Nigeria has issues it should be discussing instead of the origin of Christmas.

According to him, the countries that brought Christmas to Nigeria are still celebrating it and are doing well without the kind of problems we have in Nigeria.

He tweeted:

"The countries from where they brought Christianity to Nigeria celebrated Christmas with uninterrupted power supply. Some of us were quarelling over whether eating Christmas chicken will make us go to heaven or not. Sense will "fall on us" one day. I pray it won't be long.

"I heard @AlikoDangote say that Egypt added 10,000 MW of electricity generation in 18 months. Nigeria has hardly added 2000 MW in 20 years despite spending more money. Instead, we have air polution and noise polution from generators, or darkness. Shouldn't we be discussing this?"
