Why I’m Against Black Lives Matter – Oyakhilome

By Ayodele Oluwafemi

President of LoveWorld Incorporated, aka Christ Embassy,  Pastor Chris Oyakhilome  has slammed Africans for accepting the ‘black’ label, noting that Africans need to stop regarding themselves as ‘black’.

Oyakhilome opined that black is synonymous to bad, darkness, and lack of direction, stressing that Africans should stop addressing themselves as black.

The cleric, who had become renowned for churning out conspiracy theories regarding COVID-19 and social issues, in a sermon, said black is not colour but the absence of colour.

Oyakhilome argued that the label, black is as derogatory as Negro and Nigger but Africans accepted the label of black, saying it should have been rejected from the begining.

The cleric said, “Maybe I should tell you something, those of you that say black lives matter, I feel sorry for you, Do you really believe you have a black life? Do you want me to read to you the meaning of black from the dictionary.

“Who called you black?  You should have rejected that from the beginning A contradiction, a bundle of contradiction. You refused Negro and Nigger but that is what black is. You took the English version.

“Negro means black. Do you know what black means? Have you ever seen black? Black means the absence of colour, absence of good, absence of light and absence of direction. These are the meaning of black. Black is not a colour but the absence of colour, like you are sick, don’t you understand it?

“It is about time Africans say to themselves we are not black. Stop all these black lives. Let no one call you black because you are not black. The definition of black is not good and they are using it to destroy you.

“When you keep calling yourself black… You mean light is absent, colour is absent and you will never come to a place of light.”
