The General Overseer of Resurrection Praise Ministries International, Archbishop Samson Benjamin, has called on the Rivers State governor, Mr Rotimi Amaechi, to provide evidence of who received the alleged N7 billion bribe by the Presidency to Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN.

The  general overseer while addressing newsmen in Lagos, yesterday, said he was speaking for CAN, the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria and Apostolic Movement. He said the claim by Amaechi was a false as the Presidency never offered bribe to the Christian body as alleged by APC.

The cleric challenged Governor Amaechi to come forward with proof of where and when the money was given, as well as the clerics who benefited from the alleged largesse.

He said: “Ameachi said that pastors were given N6 billion to turn around. I challenge Governor Amaechi to come out and say where and when the money was collected. Dragging the names of our fathers in the Lord to the mud, will never be allowed by us. A man must come out and stand by his father. That is exactly why I have come out to stand by our fathers, that they are men of integrity.

“APC is taking propaganda too far. They are desecrating the temple of God. They don’t respect the church. I am saying enough is enough. APC should leave Christians alone. APC should leave CAN leadership alone.”
