UK agency sanctions Pastor Chris over Coronavirus 5G Conspiracy

This one don pass garri oh!..have you heard about the allegation made against Pastor Chris of Christ embassy?...According to Pulsenigeria247, Ofcom which is a regulatory authority for broadcasting in the UK has imposed a sanction on Loveworld Limited for airing potentially harmful claims about the coronavirus disease (COVID-19)..

Meanwhile, Loveworld is a religious television channel owned by Nigerian pastor, Chris Oyakhilome, who has himself championed outrageous claims about the coronavirus outbreak..

Ofcom still went ahead to announce in a statement on Monday, May 18, 2020, that a news programme and a live sermon on the channel aired unsubstantiated claims that 5G technology was the cause of the pandemic, and that the outbreak was the subject of a global cover-up..

The agency said the report on 5G was particularly sensitive because in the preceding days a number of attacks had been committed on mobile phone masts in the UK as a result of claims that 5G technology had caused, or was in some way linked to, the coronavirus.

.

"There is no reputable scientific evidence to corroborate the claim that there is a link between 5G technology and the Coronavirus, which runs contrary to both the international and UK official position," Ofcom said.

.

The media watchdog also noted that it found fault with a sermon broadcast on the channel that cast serious doubt on the necessity for lockdown measures, and the motives behind official health advice on COVID-19, including in relation to vaccination.
