The Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has denied an allegation that Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Church had endorsed Bola Tinubu, a former governor of Lagos State as the right candidate going into the 2023 General election in Nigeria.
The Church in a statement said Adeboye has never and will never endorse any political candidate.
The statement read, “It has come to our notice that some news outlets are reporting that a meeting between Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God Worldwide, and a former Governor of Lagos State, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, was held a few days back at the Redemption Camp where our esteemed father in the Lord was said to have supported the preferred candidature of the party the former governor is a member of.
“This is to inform the general public that Pastor E.A. Adeboye is under the authority of God, the Christian Association of Nigeria, and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, and as such, will not speak on behalf of Christians on issues regarding policies.
“Pastor E.A.Adeboye and the RCCG have not and will not endorse any candidate for the 2023 General elections in Nigeria.”
