Speaking against men of God, according to Bishop David Oyedepo of Living Faith Church, (Winners Chapel) may draw leprosy, he said.
He announced this on Saturday at the Leadership Empowerment Summit at the church's headquarters, Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland, Ota, Ogun State, according to several sources.
Bishop Oyedepo, on the other hand, acknowledged that every clergyman faces criticism, which is why prophets of God must persevere, adding it is not a problem.
He said, "Beware of speaking hurt against the Ministry you claim to be part of advancing, it’s a risk.
"Beware of speaking hurt against a Prophet you claim to believe. It is dangerous. It can make a man leprous.
"It is dangerous. We don’t have the data of how many victims may have come from this warning, but I know quite some would have been victims."
