As condemnation continues to greet the recent controversial wedding of John Kumuyi, the second son of the General-Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, the church has finally suspended the groom.
The report was contained in an online video released on Tuesday.
John’s bride, Love Odih, was accused of flouting the established doctrine of the church by using make-up and other flashy accessories that accompanied a fitted wedding see-through sleeves during the wedding that took place in Jamaica recently.
The newly wedded couple who tied the nuts on June 15, 2013, had apologised to the church over their misdeeds, however, their apology did not hold water as angry church members and the general public continue to blame them.
In the video, their apology was read on Saturday by Pastor Akpofure, during the church’s monthly miracle and revival programme, held at the Deeper Life Conference Centre, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
The apology letter reads in part, “We unreservedly and wholeheartedly state that we did not intend that our acts or omissions will, in any way, undermine the great works that God has done through the Deeper Christian Life Ministry worldwide and more especially, through our Father in the Lord, the General Superintendent.
“We also use this medium to profusely and sincerely apologise to the General Superintendent for the embarrassment and heartaches our actions have caused him, more so that he had earlier declined to be at the events.”
Pastor Philip Olowu, during the programme, said the church overseer had expressed his displeasure over the outcome of the wedding
In the video, Olowu said after a thorough assessment of the wedding, the church has decided “to place John and his wife on discipline.”
Efforts to reach the church’s PRO, Mr . Segun Babatope, on phone were fruitless at the time of filing this report.
