Founder of the Living Faith church, Bishop Oyedepo, has criticsed the election process in Nigeria vis a vis the rigging that often mars the polls.
During the last Sunday Service at the church headquarters in Ota, Ogun State, Oyedepo said the world had gone digital in its voting style while Nigeria remained behind with the crude process.
He said, “Other developed countries around the world had developed their mode of voting into a digitised method, but it’s a shame that in Nigeria, we still queue up to vote, and somebody would still be intimidated by thugs. With these, it’s a shame how politicians in this part of the world are proud of elections marred with rigging.
“In Covenant University, any student caught indulging in examination malpractice, is gone. It does not matter if his or her father is the head of United Nations or not.”
Also praying against renewed bloodbath during Saturday’s election, he said, “Every spirit of thuggery in Nigeria shall be silenced and every forces that would not let Nigeria rest shall be laid to rest and silenced forever.”
