Nigeria needs a deliverer not a leader – Bishop Oyedepo

Bishop David Oyedepo, Senior pastor of the Living Faith Church popularly known as Winners Chapel has said that Nigeria needs a deliverer and not a leader.

Speaking during a sermon on Thursday, raised concerns about the current state of the economy, insecurity crises among others.

According to him, he warned Nigerians in 2015 that the country was heading for crisis and trauma but was ignored.

Oyedepo, however, called on people to pray to God to send the country a deliverer. He said this as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi was present at his program in Ota, Ogun state.

He said, “I think I am prompted by the spirit we need to pray for this nation. I warned this nation in 2015 that we were heading for crisis and trauma, many were washing their mouth. They are off today.

“God does not require consensus to raise a prophet. I saw a nation going down the drain, I cried. There are many prophets of politicians who speak what they want to hear.

“I have been very silent, what we need now is not a leader, it is a deliverer. Almost nothing remains except the church that can be called a nation.”

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi was also spotted at the night section of the Shiloh 2022 Programme on Thursday.
