As Nigeria prepares for the 2027 election, David Oyedepo, the bishop of the Revered Pastor and Bishop of the Church of Life Faith (Church of Winners), sent a powerful message to his congregation and to Nigerians as a whole.
Bishop Oyedepo spoke in recent church services, urging Christians and all citizens to approach the next election cycle with wisdom, discernment and strong sense of responsibility. He stressed the importance of making informed choices rather than selling short-term gains.
“Is the money still there?” Oyedepo questioned voting sellers
At a critical moment during the preaching period, the bishop spoke to those who may have sold their votes:
“They gave you the money in the last election and I’m sure it’s still there.”
He went on to stress that no member of his church should be trapped again, adding that conscience and the interests of the nation must arise before temporary satisfaction.
“Federal Role Has Destroyed” – Cleric Lament
Bishop Oyedepo did not say what he said was the decline of the principle of the federal role in Nigeria. He condemned the trend of leadership focusing on certain regions or religions.
He said: “Today, you have a Muslim ticket that is spreading. Tomorrow is Fulani-Fulani. Then the governor handed over to his brother. Because the federal role has been destroyed.”
The pastor’s comments sparked discussions throughout social media, with many praising his bold call for political responsibility and integrity.
Call for the nation to salvation
Bishop Oyedepo has long been a voice advocate for good governance, justice and moral leadership. His latest information adds to an increasing number of Nigerian voice choirs, and as 2027 approaches, Nigerian voice demands better demands from the country’s political class.

churchill_777 said: “After abusing Peter Obi and teaching him a lesson: Many have sold their cars, many cannot pay their rent, many are drinking roots and agbo because they cannot afford medicines. Many cannot afford fuel. Many have gone into involuntary exercise due to the high cost of transportation, Japa has become exclusive privilege-of the rich. The cost of an Android phone is now the same amount for Corolla 2005. Yam and garri for market how far? It’s our turn.
Tribalism is a seed with many consequences. The consequences of bad governance disrespect for tribes or religions. But will they learn? ”
Igbalodebanker said: “Did you hear the prayer point? God offers Nigeria from making another wrong choice, which means we have made a bad choice, if you like to go collect 2K and vote for a bad choice, like the video posted on his IG, we don’t do another, we don’t make a bad choice anymore.
“It’s really sad. If you’re lucky enough to travel outside Nigeria, you’re going to cry for what’s going on,” said the gentleman.
