Oyedepo defends leadership retirements, urges critics to mind themselves
The founder of the Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, has urged critics to refrain from questioning the church’s decisions regarding the retirement of its pastors.
The cleric faced criticism on social media after reports emerged last week that his two vice presidents, Bishops Thomas Aremu and David Abioye, would be retiring after serving three and four decades in the ministry.
It was gathered that their retirement is in line with the operational guidelines of the church, also known as The Mandate, which serves as the church’s constitution.
Reacting while delivering his sermon at the valedictory service for Bishop Aremu at Winners Chapel, Orita Bashorun, Oyedepo stressed the importance of focusing on one’s own affairs.
He revealed that the church’s Administrative Policy of 1998 was reviewed in 2001, while The Mandate of 2012 was revised in 2024, stressing that the ministry operates by divine order.
