Femi Fani-Kayode, former Minister
of Aviation has reacted to statement by the General Superintendent of the
Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, on Sunday, urging
Christians not to attack President Muhammadu Buhari
Kumuyi, who gave the admonition
during his sermon at the Deeper Life Bible Church, Headquarters, Gbagada, in
Lagos, said that real Christians must obey constituted authorities and shun
violence.
He was quoted saying: “Don’t
attack the President of the country whether in words or in the newspapers or
through internet.
“Honour kings; don’t disrespect
or dishonour the governors. Don’t disrespect leaders of the community and
leaders in the church.
However, Fani-Kayode while
reacting to Kumuyi’s statement, urged God to deliver Nigerians from “Shepherd
who defend the cruel”
On his Twitter page, the former
minister wrote:
“Don’t attack Buhari”- Kumuyi’
“God deliver us from shepherds
that slaughter the sheep, that defend the cruel, that support injustice, that
love the wicked, that serve the tyrant, that despise the weak, that enslave the
poor and that worship genocidal maniacs and sociopathic butchers.”

Fanikayode is spiritually naive. His polical zeal which I call selfish zeal has blinded his mind to the truth. If he knows God he would not have reacted negatively to a Bible based message. The bible expressly commands us not to speak evil of any man nor speak evil of dignitaries. Fanikayode as a critic who has no record of any laudable achievement is guilty of the man of God's biblical admonition hence his stiff criticism of the man of God. Does Fanikayode expect Kumuyi to urge Christians to roll out drums of war in conspicuous antagonism of Buhari? The Bible urges Christians to pray for those in authority and not to attack or talk evil of them. I don't expect Fanikayode to speak at the level he is not up to therefore his comment is nothing but a childish kind and should not be taken so serious. His lack of knowledge of has made him speak in that an uncultured manner. After all Fanikayode is not the congregation Kumuyi was addressing.
ReplyDeleteGo and read your Bible properly. What are the accounts of Moses concerning Pharaoh? Daniel concerning Nebuchadnezzar? etc. Read the comments of the Human Rights of Nigeria about how Buhari has breached the constitution.
