The politician stated that he is opposed to homosexuality as it runs contrary to his Christian faith.

He, however, expressed the hope that divine intervention will one day change his son’s sexual orientation.

The father described his son's current situation as a spiritual challenge.

Okupe said:

"For me I look beyond the surface or the physical. Here I see a major spiritual challenge ahead but I know as my God liveth, this whole saga will end up in Praise to the Almighty Jehova who i serve day and night.

In other news, the popular crossdresser swore not to know anything about the suspension of his colleague James Brown's official Instagram page.
