COVID-19 Lockdown: Leave The Church Alone — Pastor Chris Oyakhilome Tells Nigerian Govt

The founder and senior pastor of Christ Embassy aka LoveWorld Ministries, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has reacted to the decision of some state governors to relax the lockdown order in their states for churches to celebrate Easter, saying that the best thing for any government is to leave the church alone.

Pastor Chris said this while preaching on Friday April 10, he said the church is not a place of infection but rather a place of healing and blessings. He prayed against anyone coming to church and getting infected.

Recall that the clergyman said the lockdown in Lagos and Abuja was the Federal government’s ploy to install 5G network in the state, said any wise government knows not to trouble the church.

The best thing in any government is to always leave the church alone. It is always the best thing. The wisest leader understands that. They leave the church alone. When you trouble the church, there is a scripture” he said.
