As reported by The Punch, Adeboye noted that God did a great job when God created humans, adding that women wearing make-up are expressing their disbelief in God who created them.

He said:

“When you marry, you cut your coat according to your clothes. Some of you want to be like the people of the world. I can’t even imagine some of the things I see now. It wasn’t so in the beginning.

“People spend hundreds of thousands of naira on ‘shoot out’ (photo shoot). And then, on the day of the wedding, the girl put on all manner of decorations. Those who do make-up are those who do not believe God did a good job.

“When you begin to paint, and you think you can improve on what God has already done, you are a fool. You can never improve on what God has done.”
