COVID-19: Donate church buildings as isolation centres, Pastor Tunde Bakare advises ‘men of God’ [Video]
Senior Pastor of Citadel Global Community Church (CGCC), formally known as The Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has called on Nigerian church leaders to offer their church halls as Isolation centres to government as the nation continues to battle the Coronavirus pandemic.
This advice is coming days after Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder of Living Faith Evangelical Ministries, also known as Winners Chapel, and Pastor Chris Oyakhilom, the founder and president of LoveWorld Incorporated, also known as Christ Embassy, kicked against the federal government’s continuous ban on religious gatherings.
The former Vice Presidential candidate said he has already donated his church’s facilities to the Lagos state government and a private residence in Abeokuta to the government to use as Isolation centres.
This was disclosed by the senior pastor while speaking during an online service on Sunday, May 10.
Pastor Bakare said;
”I recommend that our church halls be made available to government as Isolation centres and those of us who could afford it should be there to support the government.”
