Atiku Abubakar Hails Pastor Adeboye, Says Nigeria Needs More Leaders Like Him by yemmybx(m): 1:34pm On Jan 08, 2017
ABUJA - Nigeria’s former Vice President and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Atiku Abubakar has described Pastor Enoch Adeboye as a unique example of inspirational leadership, saying Nigeria needs more religious leaders in the mold of the clergyman.


In a statement released at the announcement of Pastor Adeboye’s stepping aside as the General Overseer (G.O.) of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Nigeria, Atiku said Adeboye’s “influence cuts across tribe, class, and even religion”.

Obayemi and Adeboye
“Pastor Adeboye is the kind of religious leader I pray that we see more of in Nigeria. He is a man beloved, and who loved one and all without discrimination”, said the former vice president.
While he praised the religious leader’s influence on multitudes of Nigerians over the past four decades in his former position, the former vice president said; “Some of the most prominent personalities Nigeria has been blessed with have been those who learnt from the pulpit of Pastor Adeboye. A most recent example is our current Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo.”

He also hailed the several efforts of Pastor Adeboye, which clearly went beyond the normal expectations for a preacher, such as his active participation in the war against HIV/AIDS in Nigeria which saw the G.O. feature in an anti-AIDS advert that was aired on national television.
In addition, the former Vice President hailed the role that the G.O. has played as a converging figure for other religious leaders in Nigeria, many who openly attended his services or consulted with him despite being of different denominations.

Heaven's applause is the most important applause any child of God should want to listen to. As a matter of fact, we should check ourselves when people like Atiku are commending us, and this is why I've always had my reservations about Pastor Adeboye. Politicians flock his church like bees in their colonies, and yet do not turn from their evil ways. I can bet it with anyone that they are not being told the whole truth of the gospel. If I as a Christian hardly get blessed by his ministration, how much less unbelievers (politicians)!

I was glad momentarily yesterday for RCCG when news broke out that he had resigned as GO, only to be told again that he still remains the GO. Well, that's their business but I think RCCG needs a fresh move of God and a GO who preaches without fear or favour and truly defends the faith in Nigeria and beyond.

Our generation needs the next Kumuyis and Gbile Akannis if Christianity will not become a superficial religion in Nigeria and Africa.

So, they can make decree for religious organization for retirement abi? What about retirement in politics? Does that one not call for retirement? What is good for the goose is also good for the ganders.

The Nigerian church (Especially RCCG) is paying dearly for supporting an extremist for presidency because they nominated a redundant VP.

Atiku is only playing politics for 2019.
