Love Oyedepo Ogah, daughter of renowned Nigerian clergyman Bishop David Oyedepo, has shared a chilling account of an assassination attempt on her father that took place during her secondary school years.
Speaking during a sermon, Love Ogah, nee Oyedepo recounted how hired assassins stormed their home with a clear assassination mission. According to her, the intruders boldly declared their intention to kill the Living Faith Church founder, searching the house for hours but failing to locate him.
“At one point, we hid between the door, and it slammed into my face,” she said, revealing the trauma of the moment. “My gum was torn and my lip was bleeding.
She went on to explain that after the armed men eventually left without succeeding in their mission, Bishop Oyedepo emerged from his room completely unharmed. What stunned the family even more, she said, was his revelation that he had been watching the assassins the entire time—but they couldn’t see him.
“He was looking at them the entire time, but they couldn’t see him. All of us were just looking like, ‘film trick’,” Love said, expressing her amazement at the divine protection her father, David Oyedepo, had over during the alleged assassination attempt
