The Cherubim and Seraphim Unification Church of Nigeria (C&S), Lagos State Chapter, says God wants Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to suspend the lockdown in the state from Good Friday through Easter Sunday.
This was made known in a statement on Thursday by chairman of the church’s Lagos chapter, Supt. Apostle Joseph Adagba, and signed by its general secretary, Evangelist Rotimi Odugbesan.
Adagba explained that God said everyone should gather from Friday to Sunday to pray against the ravaging coronavirus.
The statement read: “Through divine directive, God revealed that the coronavirus was a mechanism of the devil to prevent his children from calling on him at this time, but that time has come that God wants to hear our supplications regarding this virus.
“So, God said that everyone, irrespective of race and religion should be allowed to gather and call on him from tomorrow (Friday) through Sunday and that He was ready to listen to their voices and take away the ravaging coronavirus.
“The Lagos State Government should relax the lockdown directives so all children of God can call on Him in their mosques on Friday and their churches on Sunday.”
