Reports reaching us say that the Founder and General Overseer of Living Faith Church
Worldwide a.k.a. Winners’ Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo has placed a curse on
all abducters all over Nigeria for the pain they bring to Nigerian families.
While speaking at the third service at Faith Tabernacle, Ota
in Ogun State on Sunday 21st June, Oyedepo told kidnappers:
“As long as I am here in Christ, your endeavours in this country are cursed.”
He then added:
“For all of you who continually bring sorrow to families, I curse you and your sponsors.”
Oyedepo was reacting to the kidnap of one Pastor Seyi
Adekunle of the Calabar Province of the Winners’ Chapel located on IBB Way in
Calabar, the Cross River State capital.
The pastor was abducted by five gunmen as he led prayers in
his church in Calabar. The kidnappers then set his ransom at N60 million. The kidnappers later called Winners authorities and Bishop
Oyedepo demanded to speak with them on the phone where he put a curse on them,
saying
“I curse you in the name of Jesus and anyone who pays ransom to you is cursed.”
After the conversation, the kidnappers released the pastor
and ran away after the military alongside the police attacked their hideout. Pastor Adekunle has since gone back to his family and Bishop
Oyedepo made sure to travel to Calabar for the organised thanksgiving service
at Living Faith Church where he revealed God had a hand in the rescue of Pastor
Adekunle.
Meanwhile, Cross River State Police Command Spokesman
revealed that two suspects were caught before the Pastor regained freedom.
He said:
“No ransom was paid but we are on the trail of other accomplices and very soon I will give you more details”.
