RCCG General Overseer, Pst. Adeboye prays for Jonathan and Osinbajo

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has, at the wee hours of Saturday, prayed for the Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Pastor (Professor) Yemi Osinbajo, Senator Oluremi Tinubu and other candidates.

While making sure that the people who came out were actually candidates for the coming elections, Adeboye, fondly called Daddy GO, invited them to kneel down before the altar and asked the mammoth congregation to pray for them. 

The APC’s Vice Presidential candidate, Professor  Osinbajo, who is a provincial pastor in the mission, was the first to match forward to the altar with a rowsy applause from the congregation, while he was closely followed behind by the wife of former governor of Lagos State, Senator Bola Tinubu.

Daddy Adeboye, thereafter, asked the congregation to rise up, stretch their hands towards them and pray for the candidates that God’s perfect will concerning their lives be done.

It will be recalled that earlier in the programme, Pastor Adeboye had prayed for President Goodluck Jonathan shortly after he was invited to the pulpit to offer a goodwill message.

With tongues already wagging that the revered man of God had a preference for either the APC or the PDP, Adeboye, had once again, proved to the world, as he has consistently told people, that all the candidates, whether from APC or PDP, were all his children.

Meanwhile, President Goodluck Jonathan has vowed to end terrorism in the country, saying evil people must not be allowed to reign supreme in the land.

He said this at the February edition of Holy Ghost Night, organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God, last Friday.

As the president was about returning to his seat, the General Overseer of RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, asked him to return to the pulpit and asked him to kneel down for the congregation to use him as a point of contact for the coming elections to be peaceful before, during and after.

Earlier before he was requested to kneel before the altar, President had stated before the congregation that only God chose whom He wanted, saying “God knows who will win these elections.”
