The General Superintendent of the Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, has responded to the security concerns advised him by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) regarding the crusade scheduled for Aba.
On Thursday, IPOB sent a message to the respected cleric advising him to cancel the planned crusade in view of the insecurities posed by “unknown gunmen.”
Responding on behalf of the church, in a statement signed by Pastor James Akpofure, Chairman, Global Crusade with Kumuyi, the cleric said he is ready for the event holding from May 24.
As for the security issues, Kumuyi said that God will intervene.
The statement issued on Saturday reads in part: “Celebrating One Year of Global Evangelisation (Global Crusade with Kumuyi).
“We thank the Lord that the Global Crusade with Kumuyi has greatly impacted the World in the past year. This Global Crusade has touched millions of lives with signs and wonders, miracles, and deliverances, spanning participation from over 180 countries and 6 continents.
“As there are currently some security challenges at the intended alpha location (Aba,Abia State, Nigeria), the Global Crusade Convener, Pastor (Dr) W.F. Kumuyi commiserates with our people in Abia State and will be praying along for God’s Divine Intervention.
“This month, the Global Crusade themed “Jesus’ Power for Extraordinary Breakthrough” will be a celebration of one year of Global evangelisation.”
