The founder and General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has explained why he allowed Muslim clerics to use his pulpit at a church conference.
Kumuyi said the decision was influenced by the venue of the event, which was held at the General Yakubu Gowon Stadium in Elekahia, Port Harcourt, Rivers state, and not in a church building.
The 83-year-old pastor made this clarification in a video following controversy about the event on social media.
“People were asking, Pastor WF, what are you looking at, look at that man having his cap on. Yes, we are in the stadium, we are not in the church building, and so I do not have to challenge him, he has his cap on.”
Kumuyi had earlier sent a crucial message to Nigerians, urging them to be selfless and not self-centered for the country to experience the desired change.
