In a tweet sighted by Legit.ng on Friday, December 9, Adeyanju revealed that the general overseer of Living Faith Worldwide, Bishop Oyedepo did not endorse the former Anambra state governor.
Adeyanju further disclosed that the Labour Party flagbearer was not given the mic to speak despite being introduced by Bishop David Abioye. He, however, berated Obi for allegedly bringing politics to the church, noting that the house of God is not a platform for political campaigns.
