I am Crazy – Bishop David Oyedepo’s Daughter says (Read why)

The last daughter of the General overseer of Winners Chapeto Bishop David Oyedepo took the social media by storm on Sunday,
August 14, where she described herself as being ‘crazy’. The pastors further posted a picture of her with the caption:
“Those who know me know that I’m crazy. I don’t blend in. I’m the one who’s yingin’ when everyone else is yangin’. I’ve been called an outcast by many outsiders. But the more I tried to fit in,
the more I stood out. My differences wouldn’t let me stay the same. Everyday, I’ve come to let the differences that make me,
shine through. Tired of the need to stay the same, I’ve come to
accept the real me. I’m not the same. And as long as I stay rare,
there’d always be a need for all of me. For there would always be
room for rarity. I have decided not to let the miracle of my birth be
the sole miracle of my existence. The proof, is in my crazy”

This Instagram post obviously did not go down well with a lot of
Nigerians as she has been receiving a lot of messages from
critics.
On Monday, August 15,she took to her Facebook handle to clarify
what she meant by being ‘crazy’. She said:

“I’ve received way too many personal messages about this post
below and so for the honest few, I have chosen to make a few
things clear. It seems that many of us have misunderstood things
too easily. You all have seen my posts for a while now, some of
you have seen them for years on end, and you know that I
absolutely adore my family. That cannot, has not, and will not
ever change. Anyone who tries to insinuate any different is purely
looking for loopholes that just don’t exist. To that group, you may
need to find more profitable work because that already is a failed
venture. Then, there is this other group that expects me to be
EXACTLY like my mother or sister who are role models to many
including myself, especially myself. Thing is, you also may need to
edit your expectation because that too, will not be happening. I’m
me and will never be anyone else can never be anyone else and
will not even try to.
I love that my sister and I are not walking replicas of my mother,
she teaches us not to be, she teaches that we are who God has
called us to be, and that, with all sincerity. Our differences make
us unique, and that makes us an epic loving family that, we are
grateful to God for. Ps, “crazy” purely means/meant different.
This, you would understand if you read through the post honestly,
completely and some of us, without negative intent. So, to those
who honestly were confused on the original post, I hope you have
received the needed clarity. But to those still looking for loopholes,
sorry failed venture, be you, be who God created you to be. Yes,
have role models (& you always can start with my mother and
sister–right here on Facebook even if you have nowhere else to turn). But don’t ever try to dim your uniqueness to fit in with the “world’s” definition of perfect. God bless y’all.”
