It was a bizarre situation recently as a strange man beats the security network, ascended the pulpit at Living Faith Church, Canaanland, Ogun and attacked Bishop David Oyedepo.
The incident occurred two Sundays before the Shiloh programme organised by the church last week.
A top source from the church told PM NEWS that the intruder came through the Love wing entrance of the church and tactically, was able to access the altar while Oyedepo was preaching.
There was a lapse in security as the huge crowd at the fourth service saw the strange man in a white suit, making his way to the altar.
In a video obtained by PM NEWS, the man held Bishop Oyedepo on one of his legs and was dragging him and would have brought him down before the security officers quickly intervened.
The security men and some leaders on the altar, including Oyedepo’s son David had to forcefully pull the man away from the Bishop to prevent him from falling on the altar.
The man was bundled out of the church and was given the beating of his life by Oyedepo’s security operatives.
Since that ugly incident, security had been beefed up in the church and it was tighter at the just concluded Shiloh.
The security operatives who were on duty when the incident occurred have been changed.
