Pastor Kumuyi Clarifies Purported Relocation To UK

The General Superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor Williams Kumuyi, has debunked claims of relocating to the United Kingdom (UK).

 

CityNews Nigeria recalls that a few weeks ago, Kumuyi faced heavy criticism from many Nigerians over a claim that he had relocated to the UK after advising Nigerians to support the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

 

Reacting through the Facebook page of Cross River State Deeper Life, the clergyman said he did not relocate to the UK but was travelling from country to country for his global crusade.

Kumuyi urged his congregation not to believe such misleading information but to hold on to the truth of the word of God.

In his word: “You must have read that I relocated to the UK. “Did I relocate?” he asked. “I did not relocate anywhere. But because I went for crusade and conference and the conference and crusade is not being transmitted here, we do it over there.

“We have a time difference. Some countries I go to like the one I went to in May have about 7 hours of time difference. When it is 7 am here it will be 2 am in that other country. There is no way I could transmit that here because of the time difference.

“It was a long trip and after that long trip, I jumped into the plane and went here and there. After those trips, I needed a few days to rest so that I would not come back weary, tired, and could not preach again. So I waited. And because I spent that time, they told you that I have relocated. ”

Kumuyi also recalled how someone wrote a letter to him and addressed the letter to the UK branch of the church because he said “he heard that I have relocated.”

The member according to Kumuyi wrote, “I am writing this to you. I need prayers. I need counseling. But I heard you are now based in London.”
