RCCG leader warns Tinubu to act fast amid Trump’s threat to defend Christians in Nigeria
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has urged the Federal Government to eliminate terrorists and their sponsors before a possible United States military action in Nigeria.
Adeboye gave the advice on Friday during the November Holy Ghost Service, while reacting to recent remarks made by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
He advised President Bola Tinubu to give the newly appointed service chiefs a three-month ultimatum to wipe out terrorists and their financiers.
“This is not the time for apportioning blame. Our President inherited this problem — it started before him,” Adeboye said.
He warned that if the U.S. eventually invades Nigeria, global powers such as China and Russia would not come to the country’s defence.
“They would only talk,” he cautioned.
Trump had earlier posted on his Truth Social platform that Christianity in Nigeria was facing an “existential threat” from radical Islamist groups, stating that his administration would be “ready, willing and able to protect our great Christian population around the world.”
He also urged members of Congress to investigate the situation, directing Congressman Riley Moore and House Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole to report back to him.
