Some netizens disputed the currency of the video as some believed that the footage was from many years ago.
Pastor William Folorunsho Kumuyi, the general overseer and founder of the Deeper Life Bible Church, has relocated to London, United Kingdom.
He stated this in a viral video posted on social media during an interview with an unknown media platform in the UK.
He stated that the church has expanded to over 60 countries worldwide, with 40 branches in the UK alone.
Kumuyi’s backlash in 2023
During the post-election period in August 2023, the highly respected clergyman suffered a backlash from netizens when he charged Nigerians to back the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who was at the time fighting for his mandate in court due to controversies about his victory at the polls and his educational history.
Kumuyi advised Nigerians to stop criticising the President’s actions, saying that if they accept his administration, God will walk through Tinubu and use him and his cabinet members as instruments to build Nigeria.
He said, “If you look at the new ministers one by one, you’ll see the good things they’ve done either as state governors of the past or as former ministers, and I would say they have been carefully chosen.
