<\/p>\nKumuyi, who gave the admonition during his sermon at the Deeper Life Bible Church, Headquarters, Gbagada, in Lagos, said that real Christians must obey constituted authorities and shun violence.<\/p>\n
He was quoted saying: \u201cDon\u2019t attack the President of the country whether in words or in the newspapers or through internet.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonour kings; don\u2019t disrespect or dishonour the governors. Don\u2019t disrespect leaders of the community and leaders in the church.\u201d<\/p>\n
These remarks generated some comments on Twitter, and the reactions are presented by DAILY POST below:\u200f\u200f<\/p>\n
@margare39793611, \u201cKumuyi the most reliable pastor in Nigeria of today kudos.\u201d<\/p>\n
@UnclesolutionY, \u201cChristians must attack Buhari cos Buhari is attacking Christians in Nigeria. Too obvious. Pastor Kumuyi doesn\u2019t watch TV cos they are evil that\u2019s why he didn\u2019t know that Buhari is 100% anti-Christians.\u201d<\/p>\n
@Oluwashantel_1, \u201cThis one said Pastor Kumuyi is not materialistic but he lives in Ikoyi. Shey he should live under the bridge to prove it ni. Christians need to realize that a life of luxury is not against God\u2019s will. Don\u2019t let your mentality deter you. Bible you no read, sense, you no get.\u201d<\/p>\n
@JosephineAvid, \u201cPastor Kumuyi, there was no democratic government in the bible, quoting the bible in this instance makes no sense. Democracy requires that we hold our leaders accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n
@theboyisgreat, \u201cPastor Kumuyi said Christians should stop criticizing Buhari by quoting Peter 2: 11-25, but I think he skip or forget the below verses. Jesus, who came from heaven, criticised King Herod, a political leader (Luke 13:32).\u201d<\/p>\n
@adisa_flakky, \u201cPastor Kumuyi should mind his business and not look for our trouble. When did he even start watching news on TV self, thought it was a sin. Confused people.\u201d<\/p>\n
@Alwayzfaithful2, \u201cPastor Kumuyi claims to be a man of God, but his utterances that supports Buhari\u2019s genocidal agenda has redefined his claim. Why would he say that no one should attack Buhari through any means? \u2026 @ShehuSani @MaziNnamdiKanu God can never breed a coward as servant.\u201d\u200f<\/p>\n
@edikandavid1, \u201cPastor Kumuyi has given Nigerians a good piece of advice, but @MBuhari\u2019s attitude won\u2019t allow them stop attacking him. That\u2019s the bitter truth!\u200f\u201d<\/p>\n
@teejaybaba, \u201cHave you ever seen pastor kumuyi acquiring luxury cars or jets? Getting involved in any sexual scandals? That is a kind of religious leader we should listen to. Forget your religious affiliations.\u201d<\/p>\n
@Ezeakolam4, \u201cAre u trying to say, Pastor Kumuyi only Muslim Nigerians allowed to attack President Buhari? Many Nigerians must draw their attention to the fact, how easily fellow Christians capitulate to this government right from kumuyi to Femi Gbajabiamila just to become house speaker.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
