The General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has debunked a report claiming he accused the United States of attempting to steal Nigeria’s natural resources and denied the existence of Christian genocide in the country.
Pastor Kumuyi described the report as “fake news”, saying he did not address a press conference to make such a statement in Lagos.
The cleric made this known via a statement shared on X on Monday, November 3, 2025.
This comes after an online platform, Ibom Focus, alleged that Kumuyi made the statement during a press briefing in Lagos.
Kumuyi, however, said he did not hold any press conference in Lagos, adding that he has been out of Nigeria for an extended period conducting programmes abroad.
The statement read: “The Deeper Christian Life Ministry condemns in the strongest terms the malicious and entirely false news report circulated by a faceless platform which goes by the name of ‘Ibomfocus’.

“The story with the headline: ‘America is Trying to Steal our Natural Resources; There is No Christian Genocide in Nigeria, says Pastor Kumuyi’ is a total fabrication and the figment of the imagination of its authors.
“Pastor Kumuyi did not at any time address a press conference or make the aforementioned statement in Lagos. He has been away from Nigeria for a considerable length of time, holding programmes in the Oceania region and the Far East.
“Besides, Pastor Kumuyi is well known for focusing entirely on preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. He does not dabble into politics, as the false story mentioned above seemed to suggest.
“The Ministry warns all those bent on mischief by seeking to drag our General Superintendent into politics, or fabricating stories in his name, to desist from such venture. In the future, any such activity may attract action.”
