Politics Nigeria: Redeemed's Pastor Adeboye Did Not Endorse Prof. Osinbajo

[Vunderkind]

NIGERIA - Professor Yemi Osinbajo, the VP candidate of the APC has countered the statements that Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, endorsed him.

He however agreed that he met with the pastor as he (Osinbajo) is a pastor serving under Adeboe and it was his duty to consult him.

Osinbajo said: “I don’t think the church has ever said any such thing. Also, the church does not endorse candidates. The General Overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has not said any such thing. He has not issued any statement. In any event, the RCCG as a church cannot endorse a candidate. How can a church endorse a candidate?”

“I serve under the GO of the RCCG as a pastor. If I am going to take any kind of action, especially an action that involves public service, it is my duty to consult with him. It would be absolutely irresponsible of me not to consult with him. And I have consulted with him.”

“I have consulted with Adeboye fully. I am not prepared to share with you the details of our discussion. But be absolutely certain that I would not take these steps without properly consulting with him and that I did what was needful.”
