Pastor William Kumuyi, General Superintendent of the Deeper Life Bible Church, has announced the cancellation of the proposed Aba Crusade in Abia State.
It was gathered that Kumuyi cancelled the crusade due to security concerns in the South-East geopolitical zone.
This is coming barely three days after the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) asked the cleric to cancel the event over security threat in the region.
The crusade was scheduled to hold in Aba from May 24 to May 29, 2022 but the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra told the 80-year-old cleric not to go ahead with the crusade.
Also, the Chairman of the crusade’s organising team, Pastor James Akpofure, corroborated the development in a statement on Saturday,
“As there are currently some security challenges at the intended alpha location (Aba, Abia State, Nigeria), the Global Crusade Convener, Pastor (Dr) W.F. Kumuyi commiserates with our people in Abia State and will be praying along for God’s Divine Intervention,” Akpofure said.
In his statement titled, ‘Celebrating One Year of Global Evangelisation (Global Crusade with Kumuyi)’, Akpofure said Kumuyi would keep praying for God’s divine intervention for the insecurity bedevilling the South-East geopolitical zone.
