Pastor Kumuyi Explains Decision to Host Muslim Clerics at Church Conference
Pastor William Kumuyi, the founder of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, has explained his decision to invite Muslim clerics to speak from the pulpit during a recent church conference.
The clarification came while he was preaching on Monday at the Change Makers International (CMI) conference, held at the General Yakubu Gowon Stadium in Elekahia, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
The sight of Muslim clerics wearing traditional caps while addressing the congregation from the church’s pulpit has stirred significant discussion and controversy on social media.
In response to the backlash, Pastor Kumuyi addressed the issue in a now-viral video, explaining that the conference was held in a stadium setting rather than within the church’s traditional premises.
Pastor Kumuyi stated, “Some people questioned my decision, noting the clerics wearing their caps. However, we are in a stadium environment, not within the church building.
As such, I did not see it as necessary to address the issue of attire; the setting was different from our usual church context.” This explanation was aimed at clarifying his stance and mitigating the ongoing debates surrounding the event.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
