U.S Embassy Not Issuing Visa To Bishop Oyedepo Not True – False News Alert!

The United States Embassy in Nigeria has denied allegations that it rejected Bishop David Oyedepo, founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide visa on Thursday in Abuja.<br />ThisDay Newspaper and News Agency of Nigeria had wrongly reported that Oyedepo reacted angrily when he was told that he was not qualified for visa. The newspaper said its source did not give any other reason except the standard default explanation that the Bishop did not qualify for visa renewal in its assessment and urged him to try again.<br />But the U.S Embassy in a tweet Friday said the story was false. The tweet stated: “#False News Alert! Be advised, the reports making the rounds about a visa being denied to Nigerian Bishop Oyedepo are false. If you have seen this manufactured item in the media, help defeat this #misinformation by communicating to everyone that it is completely false.” the tweet said.
