General
Jesus, who came from heaven, criticised King Herod, Omokri cautions Kumuyi over Buhari
A former aide of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has cautioned the General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, over his comments on Buhari and other political leaders.
Pastor Kumuyi on Sunday urged Christians not to attack the President of the country and political leaders through any means because real Christians must obey constituted authorities and shun violence.
However, Omokri disagreed with the clergyman in a statement on his Twitter page. The Twitter pundit said even Jesus Christ criticised King Herod who was a political leader.
Dear Pastor Kumuyi,
I PRAISE @MBuhari if he does right. I DEFEND him if he is WRONGLY ATTACKED.
I CONSTRUCTIVELY CORRECT him when he is wrong.
Jesus CRITICIZED King Herod (Luke 13:32). Paul CORRECTED Peter (Galatians 2:11). They are my example, Reno’s tweet reads.
Meanwhile, the cleric, who read from Bible passage I Peter 2: 11-25, said that Christian lifestyle must reflect Christ in the civil society, saying that government derives their authority from God.
