Bishop Wale Oke speaks about insecurity

Legit.ng had reported that the President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), Bishop Francis Wale Oke, warned individuals involved in criminal activities that they will face the consequences of their actions if they refuse to change.

The cleric described those who threaten the peace of Nigeria through crime and other acts of wickedness as evil-minded citizens who will eventually face divine punishment.

Oke made the remarks while speaking about the state of the nation, urging those involved in criminal activities to turn away from their ways. He warned that such individuals would meet their end in no time unless they repent and embrace a path of righteousness.
