Senator Dino Melaye has sparked controversy with his recent statement on X, expressing his disappointment with the retirement of Bishop David Abioye from the Living Faith Church Worldwide. Melaye questioned the decision, highlighting the apparent inconsistency in Bishop Oyedepo, who is older, remaining in his position while the younger Bishop Abioye is forced into retirement.

Melaye’s statement has ignited a heated debate, with many weighing in on the matter. The Living Faith Church Worldwide had announced the retirement of Bishops Abioye and Aremu earlier this year, marking a significant shift in the church’s leadership structure.

The absence of Bishop Abioye at the recently concluded Shiloh 2024, an annual spiritual gathering of the church, was deeply felt by many attendees. Shiloh 2024, themed “Ever Winning Wisdom,” aimed to provide participants with a fresh baptism of the spirit of wisdom, enabling them to overcome life’s challenges.

As the controversy surrounding Bishop Abioye’s retirement continues to unfold, many are left wondering what the future holds for the Living Faith Church Worldwide. One thing is certain, however – the debate sparked by Senator Dino Melaye’s statement will undoubtedly continue to generate discussion and speculation in the days to come.
