Hijab Controversy: Leave Missionary Schools For Christians – Oyedepo Tells Muslims

Bishop David Oyedepo, founder of the Living Faith Church, has advised Muslims to leave Kwara mission schools and look for hijab-wearing schools for their children.

Oyedepo gave the advice while reacting to the Hijab controversy in Kwara State during a midweek service on Wednesday.

Christians and Muslims have been at loggerheads over hijab wearing for female students in 10 government grant-aided missionary schools in Oyo State.

Reacting, the Cleric who said the controversy was a nasty development urged the Kwara State Government to return the schools to the missionary.

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 showed 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.

Oyedepo also prayed for an end to all harassment against the church in Nigeria.
