Abioye, who is the second in command to Bishop David
Oyedepo, said the CAMA would bring doom to Nigeria if the church and the
fathers of faith are sidelined.
Bishop Abioye charged the federal government to leave
Oyedepo, Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG,
and other men of God alone rather than persecute them.
Addressing his members on Sunday, the clergyman said rather than persecute men of God, the government should ask what they are doing to touch the society.
Buhari had in August 2020 signed the amended Companies and
Allied Matters Act, CAMA Act into law.
Reacting, Oyedepo and some Christian leaders had criticized
the government, stressing that the act was aimed at the church.
However, Bishop Abioye while addressing Living Faith church
members in Kaduna said: “There are a lot of progress going on in this
commission and several other ministries over which wicked people in this nation
are unhappy and putting a different kind of rules and laws in place just to
stop the church, but they’re already late.
“Take away certain men of God from this nation; everything will
be in shambles.
“Every state in Nigeria collects the tax, where is the
development? Where are the hospitals? Where are the roads and schools?
“People who are working and making things happen should be
appreciated not castigated. Leave Pastor Adeboye, Bishop Oyedepo alone.
“Leave all our spiritual fathers alone. Leave our fathers
alone. Find out what God is using them to do and if you can’t applaud them,
stomach your anger, stomach your reaction, stomach your pain.
“How many private universities do we have that do not go cap
in hand to begging money from the government and yet salaries are being paid
regularly?”
