The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Enoch Adeboye, has said that Nigeria's next president, ahead of the 2027 general elections, has already been determined by God. Speaking during a workers' meeting at the Redemption City on Saturday, Adeboye said the outcome of the election is beyond human influence, insisting that divine will will ultimately prevail. He cautioned Nigerians against anxiety over political developments, urging citizens to remain prayerful and peaceful. He also dismissed claims that RCCG is an extension of the ruling APC, stating that politicians are welcome at church but cannot campaign from the altar.
Key Points:
- Religious followers may interpret the statement as a call to accept whatever electoral outcome emerges.
- Politicians seeking religious endorsement cannot use RCCG platforms for campaigning.
- Adeboye distances himself from being "father of all Christians," deferring to CAN leadership.
- The cleric confirms he would join a CAN-led peaceful protest on governance issues.
- The statement adds a spiritual dimension to the intensifying 2027 election discourse.
Watch whether other religious leaders make similar pronouncements and how political actors respond to Adeboye's comments.
