Adeboye to Tinubu: Beg Trump, no country’ll help Nigeria

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has urged President Bola Tinubu to appeal to his United States counterpart, Donald Trump, over a planned military action in Nigeria.

Adeboye cautioned that if the United States eventually invades Nigeria, China, Russia, and other world powers would not come to the country’s defence.

The cleric gave the advice during the November Holy Ghost Service at the RCCG Camp in the Mowe area of Ogun State on Friday, November 7, 2025.

He said: “When I say our leaders should move fast, move diplomatically, and move wisely, we must take note of the fact that if America should attack us, China is not coming to defend us. Russia will not come to defend us.

“All the so-called world leaders will talk, they will condemn what America has done in the strongest terms, that’s all they will do. Britain is not going to come and help us. No other foreign power will come to our aid.

Adeboye to Tinubu: Give service chiefs 3-month ultimatum to eliminate terrorists, sponsors

“This is not the time for joking. This is not the time for drama. This is not the time for semantics. This is not the time to begin to argue, is it suicide or kidnapping or whatever name they call it?

“And this is not the time to say, ‘Ah, it’s not Christians alone, Muslims are also involved.’ The point is, people are dying. Innocent people are dying.”

Adeboye also urged Tinubu to plead with Trump to give him a window of 100 days to tackle the insurgency in Nigeria.

The cleric said that once Tinubu secures the support of Trump to give him 100 days to halt the attacks, he should, in turn, issue a marching order to the service chiefs and other security agencies to resolve the issues within 90 days.

“Let the government use diplomatic methods to convince President Trump to give us 100 days of grace. All our service chiefs, fortunately, are new, should perform within three months, or resign,” Pastor Adeboye added.
