In a related story, WITHIN NIGERIA reported that Pastor David Oyedepo, the presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide, has declared that very soon the world will realise that they have been deceived by the Coronavirus outrage as it is a mere noise from hell.

He threw his weight behind the purported discovery of Dr. Stella Immanuel that antimalarial drug, hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and antibacterial drug, Zithromax, were effective cures for the virus.

Oyedepo who spoke at the Covenant Hour of Prayer programme of his church, said that the coronavirus is a mere noise from hell.
