According to Oyedepo, though he met with Obasanjo and Atiku last week, however he doesn’t belong to any political party.
He said, “I have never belonged to any political party and will never belong to one, wherever parties you are in that is where I am in.
“There is no party without winners in it, if you get to any party and you dno’t see any winner in it you better check out of there, even the one that have not being formed winners are.
“Our goal is to secure the glorious destiny of our nation by paying whatever price it require.
“I have never taken any dime from any political candidate in my life, I am a mediator.
‘’The price of peace is far cheaper than the cost of war so what we are saying is let us talk this over don’t let us exchange blows.
“Let us be mature and be sincere, lets give chance to reason and let the wicked turn from their wicked ways. We have to do it by appealing to people reasoning.
”Does anybody here want to see war? The 30 months war we fought, the effect keeps lingering, you won’t see war again in the name of Jesus”, he said.
