He said in part …
“You can’t slåught€r members of my family and expect me to pray for you. I will pray against you and your household. You mean they k££l people everyday and the government is pretending like they don’t know what to do. I have been quiet for a long time. When you see God keep quiet at wickedness, it’s because the bubble is about to burst. As the Lord leads, whose I am, this bubble will burst.

I have not heard any statement from government quarters against the killings. I’m yet to hear one sir. Are human lives not of value anymore? And now you mustn’t preach in a bus, is that an issue? We kept quiet waiting for God, and God told me the bubble will burst”
