Pastor William Kumuyi, founder of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, has clarified his decision to allow Muslim clerics to speak from the pulpit during the Change Makers International (CMI) conference.
The event, held at the General Yakubu Gowon Stadium in Port Harcourt, sparked widespread debate on social media, with many questioning the appropriateness of the gesture. In response, Kumuyi explained in a viral video that the stadium setting, rather than the traditional church environment, influenced his decision.
He emphasized that the message of unity and inclusivity was more important than the physical setting, stating, “People were questioning why I allowed a man wearing a cap to speak. Since we were in a stadium and not in the church building, I felt it was unnecessary to challenge him on his attire.” Kumuyi’s stance reflects his broader commitment to fostering understanding and collaboration among different religious communities.
