THE Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has created a new directorate for politics.

In a memo addressed to all regions, provinces, zones and other levels of the church, the mission said the directorate was established to help its members who are interested in contesting for political offices.

The church addressed the memo with reference number RCCG/AGO/ADM/AA.MEMO/20/01/2022, and dated February 28, through its Assistant General Overseer (Admin/Personnel) Pastor J. F. Odesola.

According to the mission, Timothy Olaniyan, a Pastor in Charge of Province (PICP) Lagos Province 12, will lead the office.

RCCG's memo on the new Directorate for Politics

Part of the circular reads, "We write to formally notify you that the mission authority has created the Office of Directorate of Politics and Governance in the RCCG. Further to this, Pastor Timothy Olaniyan (PICP Lagos Province 12) has been appointed to lead the office.

"You are kindly requested to appoint with immediate effect a Provincial Officer for your province and also ensure that the same is done at all levels of the church - zone, area and parish. The essence of this directorate is to help coordinate the engagement of our people who are willing to be involved in politics as well as mobilize support for them when required."

The church demanded that its regions and provinces send the details of its nominated coordinators for the office to the Office of the Assistant General Overseer (Admin/Personnel) of the mission.

The RCCG has one of the largest congregants in Nigeria.

The country's Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, a leader in the church, has been rumoured to be vying for the presidency.

The wife of a stalwart of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC), Remi Tinubu, a serving senator, is also a pastor in the church.

Her husband, Bola Tinubu, a former Lagos State governor and a Muslim has declared interest in becoming the next president.

Nigerians will elect a new president in February 2023 who will take over from the incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari, whose term ends on May 29.

The RCCG general overseer Enock Adeboye celebrated his 80th birthday on March 2. The mission also clocked 70 years this month.

The RCCG is in about 200 countries worldwide.

The are out to mobilize for their pikin. Thiefnibu wont like this

There is no enmity between Tinubu and Osibanjo. They collaborated together in the state capture of Lagos to have Tinubu collect 10% of tax revenue through Alpha Beta.

Osibanjo is Tinubu backup plan if he doesn't get the presidency.

Of course I can clearly understand the motives behind this action by the RCCG.
The biggest connection any average Nigerian can enjoy in this country is when you have political office holders like commissioners, ministers, governors and senators as members of your church or mosque.

Same way the Lord Jesus created 'department of politics' and appointed one the 12 to head,in other to ease off his then earthly ministry's daily administration?

John 15:19
If the world love you ,a follower of Christ,it's because you are doing what they does and like.

The Lord didn't call the church to do what the world does or like.

The Lord bought or purchased the church with his blood not because he wants to make the church produce a better heads of physical government. cos this world is not our own.
1 John 5:19
We are of God and we know that this world is in the control and power of the evil one.
Mortals are not smarter than the old dragon,his strategies and web of intricacies will confuse and entrap any believer who dares step onto Satan's environment.
Ecclesiastes 10:8
Whoever breaks the edge, serpent will bite.

Anything contrary to John 15:19 is unscriptural and against the purpose of the calling and ministry of the kingdom.
The one who called you all (MOG) said the world love it's own, child of God ,are you of the world?

Too much prosperity can mislead the mind,beware!

Man is a political animal, they say.

Religion shouldn't debar a man from partaking in the affairs of his country. Otherwise you leave the stage for less qualified people to run your affairs.

Everyone must be involved and let the best of us rule over us.

You stated some facts though:
1. The world loves its own.
2. Satan rules the world.

Why, then, does one have to meddle with Satan’s government while praying for God's kingdom to come? All you gods of men are fakes abeg. At best, they are orators and motivational speakers.

This is very good move

This is so true but what looting ration did the criminal Peter Peter Obi use with his daughter to loot over $500 million into her foreign account or what ration did the same bastard Peter Peter Obi use with his aid to loot over N250 million cash from Anambra m why is your bigoted Igbo father deaf n dump about that but his miserable soul can teach you to be making noise about Tinubu that never cross into your poverty wretched Alaigbo.
