‘Goats’ comment: RCCG punishes Adeboye’s son

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has said that he has not endorsed Vice President Yemi Osinbajo for President ahead of the 2023 general election.

Pastor Adeboye stressed that he does not support any presidential aspirant ahead of next year’s general election.

This is just as the cleric said that he doesn’t know whether the 2023 general election will hold yet.

He said God has not told him whether there would an election next year.

The RCCG General Overseer made this known while speaking at the monthly Thanksgiving Service of the church on Sunday.

Adeboye told the congregation that God spoke to him about the 2019 general election more than a year to the election but He has not spoken to him about the 2023 polls.

The revered cleric said: “Listen to me carefully and if you are going to quote me, quote me correctly. I am talking to those of you who are my children. Do you want to know the truth? And nothing but the truth? I am talking of myself now.

“As of now, as I am standing before you, I still don’t know whether or not there would be an election next year. Don’t say that Pastor Adeboye said there would be no election next year, that’s not what I said. Adeboye does not know yet, put the word ‘yet’.

“My father has not talked to me about it yet. The last time we had an election, God spoke to me about the election by June of the previous year and this is April. So, it is not late but He hasn’t told me yet.”

Pastor Adeboye added that he is more concerned about the killings in Kaduna State, oil theft, and other current national challenges bewildering the country.

The 80-year-old cleric further stated that politics is not his calling and he will never be a politician.
