i think its been harsh to put Kumuyi and maybe Mbaka in that list. They should not be ashamed. Yeah I guess, maybe I was harsh on these two. |

Eizy: 5 Men of God who should be ashamed of themselves--Ebubechukwu EI Ibecheozor. (@EI_Eizy)
"Touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm" thus says the holy Bilble. But the bible never implored us not to tell them the truth. In fact, silence can sometimes become sinful. Before I go ahead with the list I would like to state that this isn't intended in any way to ridicule any person, church or religion. I am a committed christian and my commitment to simple and honest christianity pushed me to speak up on our men of God who let us down.
No 5 : Prophet T.B Joshua.
The self acclaimed prophet of the Synagogue Church of All Nation( no insults intended) is facing trial for negligence in the collapse of his building that killed 116 of his members. The prophet who claims "vision responsibility"(that's what I call it) for half of the major events around and mostly tragedy couldn't see this one coming. After every major event, videos will surface on how he predicated it before hand and how its a shame we don't follow him. This simply means that if you are his member, you have the opportunity of hearing his prophecies live before they happen. Why didn't he see this one? Why didn't he show up in court to defend himself against the suit of negligence slammed on him? TB Joshua isn't God and as such shouldn't be held responsible for the collapse but his prophet status, the findings about that building and the embarrassing conspiracy theory he put up isn't really helping his cause. No 4: Pastor W.F kumuyi.
This is a gentleman and a scholar who shouldn't make this list. They say, when you live in a glass house, don't throw stones. Being the General Overseer of one of the biggest churches in Nigeria is the exact definition of glass house. And as such you should be careful of what you preach or teach because you might be an unexpected casualty. When Kumuyi's son wedded, the whole media went agog with pictures which showed that the wedding in Jamaica was a flamboyant wedding which is a taboo in Deeper Life Ministry. Everything which was considered anathema in the ministry were all present. From lipstick, to flowers, earings, seethrough hands etc. Members felt betrayed. To me the most shocking thing was the smiling presence of their mentor kumuyi himself. This alone suggested consent. Never mind the apologies that ensued, what will happen to the thousands of wedded Deeper Life adherents who he ruined the gloss of their wedding by not allowing them look good on their wedding day? Blackmailing them with a doctrine that labelled glamour, make up as sin. Mind you, he didn't even resign.
No 3 Rev.Fr. Ejike Mbaka.
As an unrepentant catholic, this is the hardest one to add on the list but truth must be told. The flamboyant priest's surgeon into politics is embarrassing. Throughout the election, he was inconsistent with his statements. He thought we have forgotten how he said about Jonathan in 2011. God forbid that I should call a man of God a liar but his squabble with Dame Patience Jonathan leaves little to be desired. His attraction to people of power isn't exactly bad but come on!! he is s reverend father. The most shameful being his latest comment aftermath his visit to Buhari. First of all, why should he visit Buhari? Is he a community leader? Why didn't he prophesy to Buhari privately that people want his life? Why did he have to run his mouth publicly either to gain attention or score cheap favour? Its like me telling you that someone wants your life today but God won't allow it happen knowing fully well that because you are healthy there is 99 person you will live till tommorrow. That's not even a prophecy, its a trick. Why is he frolicking with the high and mighty? He should be on the pulpit condemning evil and defending the helpless. Father please stay away from politics.
No 2:Pastor Chris Oyhakilome.
This man is controversy personified. The prosperity preacher whose overwhelming ability to mesmerize people with seasoned panache matches his propensity for mini atrocities cannot be left out. His role in the land dispute with Pastor adeboye of Redeemed Christian Church of God was terrible. He kept acting and saying things that you cannot associate with a man of God. Remember the Transcorp Hilton theft? Why always him?. A church member looted a ludicrous amount of money and donated it to him(not God). When asked to refund, he refused. The simple christian question would have been to ask an ordinary hotel manager how he got millions of Naira and thousands of dollars to sow seed. Of course he knew it was stolen but didn't care anyway. Just when you thought the handsome preacher is off the radar of controversy he pops up. He was invited by the EFCC thrice for money laundering. That's not all, he is currently enjoying his messy divorce. Yes, its not even the wife's infidelity, it was him. Accused of multiple adulterous acts. The most controversial being the rumour of relationship with a church member (names withheld). He should really be no 1 on this list. Mind you he was the one that said masturbation isn't a sin. Just saying.
No 1: Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor.
The senior pastor of World of life bible church. First of all, this man came against TB joshua in 2012, doubting if he was really a man of God,if he can do it, please don't judge me. He claimed he was presented a private jet by his congregation in 2012.Mind you, his congregation isn't that large. The pastor's air plane was used to illegally ferry money by Nigerian Government to south Africa.The claimed to be oblivious of the deal. The aircraft's registration number is different from the one he claimed his congregation gave him. This suggests that he has more than one private jet,(Think Oyedepo). This makes him a billionaire. The last time I saw him celebrate his birthday with charity, he did with bags of rice.(Really?) As Nigerians continues to marvel at the revelations from #Dasukigate about those involved with the diversion of Arms fund. It is very shameful as a christian to hear that the president of Christian Association of Nigeria(CAN) is involved. Why are these men of God embarrassing us? ON. W F KUMUYI Are you aware the son & the newly wedded wife were immediately suspended? Are you aware the leadership of Deeper Life rejected Kumuyi's letter of resignation? |

I am aware, I am aware he tried to resign which is a prove he was ashamed of the event. I am not talking of the aftermath, I am not judging them. |
