Oyedepo kicks against hijab in Kwara Christian schools

David Oyedepo

Presiding bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide David Oyedepo says the hijab crisis in Kwara State would have been averted if people see the “other side of God”.

The state government had closed 10 missionary schools following crisis over the use of hijab by Muslim female students.

Reacting to the development, Oyedepo advised that those who want to wear hijab should go to schools where such is permitted.

He said, ”It is such a nasty development in Kwara State where Muslims are asking their students in our schools to wear hijab, and the church said ‘no’.

”You know the reason why? We have never shown the world the other side of God. God is not a toy, let us show them the consuming fire part of God. They need to know.

”Leave the schools for the owner, go to your schools. Is there any fight? Stop putting fingers in the eyes of others, the world should be warned against the church. The church is a time bomb.

”When God turns his back on anyone or any system, that system is cursed. My advice is leave the schools for the owners, find your schools. Men and women can wear hijab there. Stop putting your fingers in the eyes of others when they are not blind.”
