RCCG Denies Claims Pastor Adeboye Backed Protest Or Political Candidate by AnonPoet(op): 4:32pm On Jun 02
The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has dismissed reports suggesting that its General Overseer, Enoch Adejare Adeboye, endorsed any political party, candidate, or was involved in calling off a protest.

In a statement released on Tuesday via the church’s official public relations X (Twitter) handle, RCCG described the claims as false and misleading, stressing that Pastor Adeboye has consistently remained non-partisan.

The church explained that Adeboye has always encouraged members to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and participate in elections responsibly, while allowing individuals to choose candidates based on their personal convictions. It added that RCCG members belong to different political parties, and the church does not impose political alignment on anyone.

RCCG also denied reports that the cleric cancelled a planned protest. According to the statement, what was actually communicated was a directive from the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) regarding adjustments to a three-day prayer programme. The revised arrangement, it said, involved holding a grand finale at a central location and organising a rally within the venue area.

The church further rejected claims that Adeboye has been silent on national issues. It stated that he has consistently spoken on matters such as insecurity, corruption, hardship, elections, governance, and the need for righteous leadership, but typically does so through prayer, moral guidance, and counsel rather than political confrontation.

RCCG urged the public to disregard false narratives and rely only on official communication channels for accurate information about the General Overseer and the church.

It also called on bloggers, media organisations, and content creators to verify information before publishing, stressing that the public deserves accurate reporting.

“Verify before you believe. Fact-check before you publish. Truth matters,” the statement added.

Tinubu's presidency really exposed a lot of things and a lot of people in the country.

As a matter of fact, Mr Adeboye, Tunde Bakare and Wole Soyinka have all lost their voices immediately Tinubu became the president and they've all forgotten where Ojota is again.

Nigerians are now advised to pray against terrorism, banditry, incompetency, kidnapping etc.

Hypocrite everywhere on the net. When he prayed for Jonathan was the prayer meant for Jonathan to lose election?

Re: RCCG Denies Claims Pastor Adeboye Backed Protest Or Political Candidate by Igbophobia: 6:34pm On Jun 02
Well, we know what he did to Jonathan during Jonathan's administration and how he became suddenly apolitical because his party and tribesmen are now in power. So you don't have to tell us anything.

How about the professor with bushy hair and beard and tail? How about the other political pastors? I pitied those from otherrr tribes who joined them against Jonathan. People like Aisha Yesufu and Oby Ezekwesili. They thought they did what they did because they cared about the country. It was just a ploy to grab the national cake. If you're fro SE, SS or NC and still back APC, there's mopre hope for a fool that you.

If you can support your statement with facts, then you have a point. Pastor Adeboye never protested against any president. The problem is that many people believe and spread fake news without checking the facts. That's how Eedris Abdulkareem's claim in his song that Adeboye protested against Jonathan ended up deceiving a lot of gullible people like you.

Re: RCCG Denies Claims Pastor Adeboye Backed Protest Or Political Candidate by Image123(m):
We said this here several times but agenda must agend. They went on a prayer walk against insecurity. It's not like there was civil disobedience or that they grinded the country to a halt or something. Similarly today, churches are still praying against insecurity. Adeboye still talks about how people are suffering if you care to listen to him or attend their programmes.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2010/10/kidnapping-rccg-petitions-jonathan-to-stage-one-million-man-protest/

In 2010, na still beg and prayers them beg sleeping GEJ. Some ignorant ones asking him to storm the streets and make Tinubu resign know that they can't win elections. They've always looked for backdoor way to disturb the legitimate government. They've called military, coup, death, Putin, Trump hoping someone should truncate our democracy. Calling pa Adeboye to come and save them says a lot about their despair, desperation and lack of intelligence. Pa Adeboye, please pray for them Sir.

Show proof of this constantly that you referring to. Everyone tried to wake sleeping Jo because he was so clueless and even denying insecurity. It was so bad that i think for the first and probably only time, even the usually silent Deeper Life church spoke up.
We recall vividly what we faced even to enter church or bank that time. Everything came to a halt. Public gathering was a thing of fear and prayers. Bus parks were target practice for bombs.
But RCCG never went on a civil disobedience kind of protest you're alluding to or hoping for. Nowhere was grounded to a halt. They simply pleaded with GEJ to look into it. And they were pals with GEJ BTW. He was going there and kneeling for prayers every other year. There was no hostility between the two.
Bringing this and fPMB time up confirmed what we've been saying here, insecurity, kidnapping, terrorism are not new in Nigeria.

You'v made some valid point, the truth is we can't deny some positive adjustments. But when the death and insecurity is rising the president really really needs to do more than the expected.

What if he led protest under Jonathan? Was Jonathan untouchable? Were people not groaning under Jonathan? Under the same Buhari, he led protest as directed by CAN. During ENDSARS, his wife sent Snacks & bottled water to the multitudes protesting at Alausa against police brutality. Under Tinubu the church led protest last Sunday as directed by CAN & before then, he had
spoken against Christian genocide in Nigeria. Adeboye is not the president of Nigeria, he has not contested for any post in any election. If Adeboye was a nobody, would you use his name for clout? Face your president!
