Let Nigerians Express Their Views – Shehu Sani Cautions Pastor Kumuyi

Shehu Sani, lawmaker representing Kaduna Central has cautioned the General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, William Kumuyi, to allow Nigerians express their views about their leaders.

Mr Kumuyi had on Sunday told Christians not to criticize their leaders including President Muhammadu Buhari.

The cleric gave the advise on Sunday during his sermon at the Deeper Life Bible Church, Headquarters, Gbagada, in Lagos said that real Christians must obey constituted authorities and shun violence.

He said Christians are strangers and pilgrims in the world and must be Christ-like in their character, conducts and conversations.

“Don’t attack the president of the country whether in words or in the newspapers or through internet,” Kumuyi was quoted by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) to have said.

“Honour kings; don’t disrespect or dishonour the governors. Don’t disrespect leaders of the community and leaders in the church.

“If we are to honour the governors in the states, how much more the pastors, ” he added.

But disagreeing with the cleric, the Kaduna lawmaker said criticism is the only shield by which democracy flourish.
