Nigerians on Twitter have accused the founder of Loveworld Ministries International, better known as Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, of pushing a conspiracy theory against the 5G mobile networks.
In a series of teachings recently delivered, Oyakhilome said the proponents of a ‘new world order’ created the coronavirus to cause fear among people and are putting together a vaccine for it and 5G networks to control people’s lives.
“Lockdown is hilarious because you cannot lock down a virus. We are constantly being fooled. Where does the theory come from that the virus makes us sick? It’s just a plot to create vaccinations,” he said.
Oyakhilome added: “They release the virus to create fear and with the fear you would be willing to collect the vaccine.
“They also want to use 5G which is 10 times as powerful, which is to be sold in such a way that everyone would embrace. So they give us a virus to fear and a 5G to embrace.”
In response to concerns about the 5G networks, the Federal Government said on Saturday that it had not granted licence for the use of the networks in the country.
