The United States has reacted to the news making rounds that it denied the Founder and General Overseer of the Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo visa.
A report by This Day had claimed that the Pastor was denied visa by the US embassy in Lagos which made him lash out at workers at the embassy.
However, reacting, the United States embassy in its official Twitter page, @USEmbassyAbuja, described the reports as ‘false’.
The tweet said, ”#FalseNewsAlert!’’ Be advised, the reports making the rounds about a visa being denied to Nigerian Bishop Oyedepo are false.
”If you have seen this manufactured item in the media, help defeat this #misinformation by communicating to everyone that it is completely false.”
