Founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, David Oyedepo, has recounted an incident involving one of his pastors who was abducted.
Speaking during a sermon, Oyedepo narrated that upon learning of the kidnapping, he requested to speak directly with the abductors.
According to him, he issued a command for the pastor’s release within 24 hours, stating that the atmosphere at the time became intense.
He further advised members of his congregation that if they ever find themselves in a similar situation, they should ensure the abductors contact him directly.
His words in part …
“One time one of my pastors was carried by kidnappers, and I said give them the phone. I commanded them to release him within 24 hours. The place was vibrating on the spot. If anybody picks you, give them my number.”
