Condemnation has trailed comments credited to the founder and presiding bishop of the Faith Tabernacle, Bishop David Oyedepo, calling on God to split Nigeria if it pleases Him.
Some Nigerians have called Bishop Oyedepo a divisionist following his comments on the break-up of Nigerian.
The Bishop during a ministration on Sunday, January 8, in Otta, headquarters of his ministry, reportedly rained down curses on those promoting the wanton killings in Southern part of Kaduna state.
Oyedepo was said to have asked God to take the best decision that would be better for the troubled nation.

Those offended by the cleric's comments called him a divisionist who is no different from Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau and Nnamdi Kanu who are bent on splitting Nigeria.
They expressed shock that such statement could be made by a preacher and urged security agencies to start arresting pastors who make such divisional statements.
