Islamic cleric thrashes Portable for slapping preacher, sends him home: "Which money do you've sef?"
In his words:
“I’m a pastor, Pastor Zazu. Anything I say is the word of God. When I talk, God talks. I’m an angel, I am a human being, I’m not perfect. I am God’s servant even though I might be a gangster, God talks through me. I did not disrespect any pastor, if you are truly a pastor, God’s spirit would have told me, your words are not the word of God. I know God’s word, I know how I talk to God and you cannot tell me how to speak with God. I know how I have been talking to God in the open and in secret and He has been answering me. God answers me every time I talk to Him, from Monday to Sunday. God would not reject my voice or get angry at me. You people will not succeed in killing me. I am surrounded by enemies but God has continued to save me. Is it everyone that God called to be a pastor? Wait for God to call you and don’t spoil his works. I am a king, I am a pastor, a babalawo, an Ogboni and Alfa.”
