He emphasised that he had no involvement in such promotions and urged people to refrain from engaging with or sharing the content.
“These videos are NOT from me, and I want to make it clear that I have no involvement in such promotions,” he stated, calling on the public to report the fraudulent accounts to prevent further misinformation.
The pastor assured that relevant authorities were already addressing the issue, stressing that God’s name should not be misused for deceitful purposes.
