Living Faith Church Worldwide, Founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo and his Church, Winners Church, has come under heavy social media attacks for setting up Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) through which members can still donate to the church even while at home during the lockdown.
Bishop Oyedepo, who was in the eye of the storm, last week, for holding church service when the Ogun State Government, had directed that all gatherings of more than 20 people be banned, said not holding church should not stop people from giving.

The USSD, which is currently trending on social media, has set tongues wagging with many lampooning the Ota-based Bishop for lacking empathy in a time of the pandemic.
The USSD is available on all telephone networks.
According to them, instead of setting up relief efforts, the church was busing thinking of a way to further fleece people when they should be helped.
Many expressed disappointment that Bishop Oyedepo did not think of helping those who are affected by COVID-19 but instead thinking of a way to make money.
Bishop Oyedepo and his church, Winners Chapel, have come under the intense hammer for disobedience to authority, an allegation the church has denied.
