Pastor Adeboye referred to me as "ABRAHAM," and when I asked what that meant, he replied, "Watch out, the Father of Nations." Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Lmao 😂😂😂
RCCG go wan gaslight you 😂
The moment Osinbajo was named Buhari’s running mate, RCCG unleashed a full-scale war from the pulpit against GEJ. They moved like a political army in cassocks.
But today? Total silence.
Not a single word.
This wasn’t some random uncle ranting; it was Daddy G.O.’s own right-hand man dropping it raw from the altar.
Let’s even pretend the church isn’t, only RCCG has had a pastor be the country’s vice president, shared birthday presents during Tinubu’s birthday and have the First Lady be a pastor. They should stop the cap, they are VERY complicit.
So you people IMAMS don't speak up against bad government? I know we're hammering on pastors but they're other religions in Nigeria. Traditional rulers Nkor? Are they speaking up ? All other religions Nkor?
I get it but
Statement like this piss me off
Because this is a matter of life & death. & we are the ones dying. Keep doing my candidate your candidate.
Don’t vote for who would help us survive this flipping country, it’s yourself & your future children you are doing a disfavor
RCCG's PR team has been trying very hard to rage-bait and gaslight Nigerians since morning, and I'm glad more people are beginning to see through it.
I say this with my full chest: RCCG has gradually turned into the religious political wing of the APC. I didn't stutter.
What's sad is that I say this as someone who spent years in the church. I honestly don't recognize it anymore.
In the clip being circulated, Pastor E.A. Adeboye said a lot of things, but when you strip away the words, it sounds very similar to the vague statement Davido came online to make a few days ago. At one point, he said, and I quote, "...in case there is any of you who can get across to them."
"Them" being the government.
The same government whose First Lady is an ordained RCCG pastor. The same government to which he arguably has one of the closest lines of access among Nigerian religious leaders.
RCCG's official page also replied to someone and said, and I quote: "An 84-year-old man should go lead a protest for your own future?... You are not ready."
Interesting.
An 84-year-old man is apparently too old to lead a peaceful protest, but not too old to remain General Overseer of one of the largest churches in the world.
You also pointed out that he joined a peaceful walk in 2020 under the directive of CAN.
So what exactly has changed?
Has Nigeria improved so dramatically since then that peaceful public advocacy is no longer necessary? Or are we supposed to believe that a man of his influence suddenly has no voice within CAN and no ability to push for similar action today?
As for CAN, I have a lot to say, but that deserves an entire post of its own.
What Nigerians will not accept is this attempt to gaslight people about the radio silence, political apathy, and consistent reluctance of many religious leaders to challenge power when it matters most.
Leadership comes with responsibility.
You cannot command the loyalty, attention, and obedience of millions of people and then expect people to keep quiet when you don’t speak up the right way.
The reason RCCG's PR team is suddenly working overtime is simple: Nigerians are becoming bolder. People are suffering more. And when suffering reaches a certain point, people stop whispering and start speaking their minds.
