Pastor Adeboye Urges President Tinubu to Act on President Trump's Plea to Stop Christian Killings in Nigeria

Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has urged President Bola Tinubu to move swiftly and diplomatically to persuade America President Donald Trump to delay any action against Nigeria for at least 90 days amid rising tensions over the alleged persecution of Christians in the country. Speaking at the November Holy Ghost Service at the Redemption Camp in Ogun State-Nigeria on Friday, Pastor Adeboye warned that the situation required wisdom and speed rather than confrontation. "If I were asked to make suggestions, I would say to our government: move fast, move diplomatically, move wisely," he said.

"Find a way to convince the president of America to delay his actions for about 100 days, then come home and tell our security chiefs to get rid of these terrorists within 90 days or resign." said Pastor Adeboye Trump had, on October 31, ordered the Pentagon to prepare "possible action" in Nigeria, accusing the government of "failing to stop the killing of Christians".

"I almost spoke out last month when I heard the speech from my in-law, the President. You can go and listen to it again, particularly the section that addressed security. When I heard him say that all is well now and that displaced people have returned to their villages, I almost said that the person who wrote that speech for my President, my in-law, does not like him. Said Pastor Adeboye
