Ps Chris Oyakhilome, founder and president of Loveworld has said the statement “Black lives matter” should be rejected by people of colour of African descent.
During a very recent sermon, Pastor Chris declared the term “Black” to be a racial slur when used to describe people of colour. He explained that Black, which is synonymous to racial terms ‘negro’ and ‘nigger,’ is an absence of colour, and does not connote anything good.
He further went on to say that Africans need to reject the term ‘black’ when describing their skin colour because when compared to actual black, people of African descent are not black. He stated ‘people of colour’ is a better term.
He further argued that names have an impact on people, and therefore constantly referring to and being referred to as black is tantamount to calling oneself absent of light, absent of good and all the negative connotations that black has.
