The RCCG London Pastor Agu Irukwu is an outspoken man of God, one has no option but to love his teachings of the work of God.
According to METRO, Agu Irukwu was chosen by 54 per cent of voters in a competition organised by Mayor of London Boris Johnson and Metro. He was picked from a shortlist that also included US president Barack Obama, former South African leader Nelson Mandela and US human rights activist Martin Luther King. Former investment banker Mr Irukwu, senior pastor of Jesus House in London since 1994, has come under fire for his outspoken views on homosexuality.
The married father of three signed a letter sent to a national newspaper, attacking laws which force churches to accept gay people. Mr Johnson, who voted for Muhammad Ali in the poll, has previously been criticised by gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell for accepting Warwick University law graduate Mr Irukwu’s invitation to a carol service.
The competition takes place during Black History Month, which champions black culture, history and heritage, and seeks to recognise the contribution made by black people to Britain.
Stand up for what is RIGHT.
