Reactions trail Pastor Isaac Omolehin’s fresh allegations of persecution by PFN after failed Canada trip

A recent viral video featuring Pastor Isaac Omolehin has ignited a fresh wave of controversy, with the cleric alleging he is being persecuted by powerful leaders within the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN).

​The video comes months after Omolehin made some accusations against the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) and a few other Pentecostal denominations which he later apologised for.

In his latest claim, Omolehin detailed a discouraging experience where a church in Canada, which had invited him for ministration, turned him away upon arrival.

​ The Costly Trip and Unexpected Rejection

​Omolehin recounted spending $8,000 of his personal funds on round-trip airfare for himself and his wife from Nigeria to Canada, under the promise that the amount would be refunded after his ministration.

​Unfortunately, upon arrival, the church that invited him refused to grant him an audience, claiming they had received a directive from Nigeria not to allow him preach at the event. His incurred travel expenses were never refunded, leaving him dejected.

​Omolehin shared that a similar scenario nearly unfolded during a subsequent invitation to Cape Town. His host there confirmed receiving instructions from the PFN leadership not to allow him to preach.

However, the host reportedly stood firm and insisted that he must preach. The host pastor asserted that the PFN would not be able to heal the sick or save the unsaved members of his congregation.

​In the same video, Omolehin claimed to have found an ally in Pastor Arome Osayi, who allegedly confided that he, too, had suffered persecution from fellow pastors.

He did not mention the church in Canada throughout the message and did not give specific names of the people that were allegedly witch hunting him.
