Adegboyega said his church has helped get hundreds of knives off the streets and has tackled gun violence in the UK.Addressing criticism over his lavish lifestyle, the preacher, who has repeatedly sported luxury items, said, “I put on what is right, what connects to the generation I’m speaking to, so they are not attracted to drug dealers”.
