David Oyedepo Barred From Entering UK

Popular Nigerian clergyman, Bishop David Oyedepo, has been barred from entering the United Kingdom, Thisisafrica.me repots.

According to a source at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, the founder and Chancellor, Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State, who reportedly holds a ‘C’ Visa that grants him access to the UK for duration of ten years was stopped from travelling on Saturday, 9 August, 2014, following a directive from “Airline Alert”.

The source said the alert which warned that any airline that disobeys the ban is liable to a fine of £2000, also revealed that the reason for it was yet to be ascertained, but suspected an inquiry by the UK Charitable Commission which accused the UK branch of the Winners Chapel of exploiting supporters as reported by Daily Mail and Guardian.
