The Nigerian Women in Clergy (WIC), a faith-based women group, has expressed concerns over the spate of criticisms surrounding Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, Prophet T.B. Joshua and Pastor Chris Oyakhilome by some Nigerians.

This is contained in statement signed by the President of the group, Mrs Nonnie Robertson, and made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Monday.

It said the group was worried about the kind of comments made by Nigerians about the activities of the three clergymen, urging Nigerians to rather reflect more on issues plaguing the country.

“We have observed with great concern the manner in which Nigerians are overtly engrossed in various scandalous cases involving some prominent leaders in the body of Christ.

“This is the time for serious intercession for the country. Nigeria is at a crossroad, the power tussle is more spiritual than political.

“Nigerian Women in Clergy have added their voices to the ongoing crisis plummeting churches and men of God in Nigeria, by calling on God to take control of the several allegations flying around His servants.
