Ota, Ogun state – Ahead of the 2023 general election, Bishop David Oyedepo, the President of Living Faith Church Worldwide, has said Nigeria needs a deliverer and not a leader.
The respected Christian cleric said this on Thursday, December 8, during a sermon at the ongoing Shiloh programme at the church’s headquarters in Ota, Ogun state.

2023 general election: Pray to God, Oyedepo tells Nigerians
Bishop Oyedepo urged Nigerians to therefore pray to God to send Nigeria a deliverer so people could have a rest of mind.
His words:
“I think I am prompted by the spirit we need to pray for this nation. I warned this nation in 2015 that we were heading for crisis and trauma, m any were washing their mouth. They are off today.
“God does not require consensus to raise a prophet. I saw a nation going down the drain, I cried. There are many prophets of politicians who speak what they want to hear.
“I have been very silent, what we need now is not a leader, it is a deliverer. Almost nothing remains except the church that can be called a nation.”
