Oyedepo slams critics of fees charged by
Covenant University, says fee has ‘Gods approval’
Dr David
Oyedepo, the Bishop of the Living Faith Church worldwide, has appealed to those
criticizing the school fees charged by Covenant University to desist to avoid
incurring the wrath of God.
Oyedepo, in a telecast to a pre-Shiloh 2016 Convention gathering
of the church monitored via satellite in Jos on Saturday, said the critics were
acting in ignorance and risked incurring the wrath of God.
He said one of such critic smitten with a strange plague of
chronic mouth odour over the act only received spiritual pardon following his
confession and “my intervention before he was restored to dignity”.
Oyedepo said the issue of school fees paid by students of the
university was a godly agenda to meet the demands of raising godly children in
an environment conducive for learning.
He said such criticisms were products of ignorance as what
students pay could not be compared with what obtained elsewhere that lacked
facilities.
“The school fees has Gods approval and is in accordance with the
quality of facilities provided by the university in meeting the educational
needs of the nation,” he said.
He said the church in its pioneering role in pushing the
frontiers of education with excellence had concluded plans to establish
offshore universities.
The cleric said a fully automated Bible press by the church had
been completed and would be launched soon.
Oyedepo, however, quoting from some verses of the Bible, which
include Matthew 24:6-8, 1Peter 2:9, Joel 2:2 and Mal. 4:1, said the current
economic meltdown was predicted but that committed Christians would be
exempted.
He prayed for resources for parents to always meet the demands
of the time and declared the theme of this year’s Shiloh holding between Dec. 6
and Dec. 10 as “My Case is Different”.
The
bishop said this year’s annual event of Shiloh would not be advertised as past
events as it would be church based.
