Pastor William F. Kumuyi Denies False Claims of Genocide Dismissal and US Resource Theft
In an Official Statement released by the Official Handle of The General Overseer of the Deeper Chritian Life Ministry regarding;
“A viral report falsely quoted Nigerian pastor William F. Kumuyi as denying Christian genocide in Nigeria and accusing the US of plotting to steal natural resources, originating from the online platform Ibomfocus. Kumuyi’s Deeper Christian Life Ministry issued statements on November 2, 2025, labeling the report as malicious and inaccurate, while the pastor focused on his Global Crusade events in Fiji and the Solomon Islands. The incident occurs amid documented religious violence in Nigeria, with over 5,000 deaths reported last year by the US Commission on International Religious Freedom, and heightened US scrutiny of persecution.”
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The Deeper Christian Life Ministry @dclmhq condemns in the strongest terms the malicious and entirely false news report circulated by a faceless platform which goes by the name of “Ibomfocus”.
The story with the headline: “America is Trying to Steal our Natural Resources; There is No Christian Genocide in Nigeria, says Pastor Kumuyi” is a total fabrication and the figment of the imagination of its authors.
Pastor Kumuyi did not at any time address a press conference or make the aforementioned statement in Lagos. He has been away from Nigeria for a considerable length of time, holding programmes in the Oceania region and the Far East.
Besides, Pastor Kumuyi is well known for focusing entirely on preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. He does not dabble into politics, as the false story mentioned above seemed to suggest.
The Ministry warns all those bent on mischief by seeking to drag our General Superintendent into politics, or fabricating stories in his name, to desist from such venture. In the future, any such activity may attract action.
