Omotoso in court for immigration-related offences

WWSOSA and Faith Action Collective coordinator Daniela Gennrich says the support shown to Nigerian televangelist Timothy Omotoso, despite serious transgression, shows the power they have to control the narrative. Omotoso was arrested on Saturday for contravening the Immigration Act. A number of Omotoso’s supporters gathered outside the East London Magistrate’s Court where he’s appearing for immigration violations expressed their support for him and unhappiness about his arrest on Saturday. He has filed an urgent high court application against the home affairs minister’s decision to declare him a prohibited person.
