Pastor Taiwo Odukoya of Fountain of Life Church says he find it
annoying that Christians keep criticizing CAN leader, Pastor Ayo
Oritsejafor for owing a private jet.
Pastor Odukoya said this yesterday Oct 14th while speaking at the
media parley for the launch of the Fountain Initiative for Social
Development,a social enterprise being championed by his wife, Nomthi.
He also talked about the Sosoliso plane crash that killed his late wife
Pastor Bimbo in Dec. 2005.
“It’s been years, what is the outcome of the investigations into the
Sosoliso air crash? If anybody whether you are a leader or not,
and you do what is wrong, we won’t endorse it. I don’t agree that
he was wrong.
Nigeria is considered to be a country with the
highest number of private jets, if not, we are known with a good
number in the world. How do you handle that?
"For some, getting a private jet is for business. They give it to
companies that will handle all aspects of maintenance including
the hangar and then they run it as business.
That was exactly
what he did. Apart from that, why would such a person have a
jet .You want me to tell you? Why would Baba Enoch Adeboye or
Pastor David Oyedepo need a jet? My wife (late Bimbo Odukoya)
is dead. She was going to preach when she crashed and died.
Would we rather allow that our people die right all over Africa?
What is annoying is that those who are criticizing Oritsejafor are
Christians.
We question their Christianity. You don’t want him to
have a jet. You want another plane crash to kill him? My father in
the Lord, Bishop Mike Okonkwo will travel by road from Lagos to
Benin Republic and he would be delayed only to enter one rickety
plane at the end of the day. We don’t want another person to die.
If you want to buy Concord or space jet, buy it. It is the corruption
in the system that allows people to get away with wrong doing,”
he said.
