"What is happening to Christians and churches qualifies fully as persecution''- Rev Chris Oyakhilome
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The senior pastor of Christ Embassy, Reverend Chris Oyakhilome, has once again aired his view about the COVID-19 guidelines issued by the government for religious gatherings.

According to the clergyman who spoke during a live sermon on Wednesday, July 1, what is happening to churches with regards to the guidelines qualifies fully as persecution.

In his words

”What is happening to Christians and Churches qualifies fully as persecution because in many countries, many states and many cities, people are allowed to go to the shops, market places, crowded places for hours without wearing a mask. Nobody cares about social distancing…and yet we have those who have the audacity and the foolishness to go into churches and say they are monitoring churches because the virus only attacks people who go to church”
