A man identified as Pastor Oloruntimilehin Daramola, in a viral video posted on TikTok, has urged his congregation to get fortified for protection against attacks.
In the footage, the cleric, who introduced himself as the Founder of The Omnipotence Mission of God on his TikTok profile, told his followers to take steps he said would shield them from armed attackers.
He called on the Federal Government to permit widespread gun ownership among Nigerians.
The acclaimed pastor also referenced Nigeria’s amalgamation, suggesting that the country’s major regions could peacefully go their separate ways if the present union was no longer working.
“You members, go and do something that can protect you, so that if they come with guns to your surroundings, they will face each other and shoot each other,” he said.
The ‘cleric’ further charged his congregation to employ unconventional methods, adding that they should get bees to chase the criminals away.
“Go and do it. Let me tell you, all my members must do it. If I say they should do it and they don’t, I will send them away, because I don’t want any of my members to die,” he added.
The pastor claimed he could not “be fortified” while his followers remained unprotected.
He said, “I am a good shepherd. I cannot be looking while my members are being killed.”
Referencing past attacks, he added that victims who called on Jesus were not spared.
He said, “When they got to Owo, that church, some people shouted the name of Jesus. Jesus had the power to save them, but Jesus said ‘Until you get to heaven.’ In Kaduna, the churches that they attacked, several of them called on the name of Jesus, but they were still killed. Why? Jesus said ‘We will meet in heaven.”
