@alexasalterego said the cleric came in a helicopter and teachers touched and knelt in front of the aircraft to “tap blessing.”
She described the teachers’ actions as fooling. Her story on X read:
“I remember he brought his helicopter to the sec school one time and the teachers were all touching it and kneeling in front of it to “tap blessing”. There are pictures of them in the year book and every time a teacher pissed me off, I’d go look so I can laugh at them fooling.”
Bishop Oyedepo recently marked his 70th birthday and was gifted a Rolls Royce Cullinan.
