  • Why I’m yet to tell Nigerians who will win 2023 presidential election – Pastor Adeboye

    Why I’m yet to tell Nigerians who will win 2023 presidential election – Pastor Adeboye

    General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has disclosed why he is yet to open up on who will win the 2023 presidential election.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Pastor Adeboye, fondly referred to as Daddy GO, made the disclosure at the January 2023 Holy Ghost Service of the RCCG during his sermon titled: “Wonderful”.

    While stressing that people cannot be deceived when they begin to hear from God for themselves, the revered man of God said any prophet who says God has revealed who will win the 2023 presidential election is a liar.

    Adeboye said: “Let me tell you one thing. This is for your ears only. Anyone who is prophesying now, telling you this is the fellow who will win, is deceiving you.

    “You know why? Daddy has not spoken yet. He hasn’t said anything. So, if you say somebody released a prophecy, saying somebody from this place is the [winner], na lie o”.

    Pastor Adeboye said he cannot disclose the winner of the 2023 presidential election yet because God has not revealed it to him yet.

    “How can I tell you what He hasn’t told me?” Adeboye questioned rhetorically, adding “you want me to lie to you?”

    He, however, charged members of the church gathered at the old auditorium of the RCCG located along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway to get their permanent voter’s cards (PVCs) ready for the elections.

    “Get your PVC ready. If He doesn’t say anything, when it is time to vote, vote as the Spirit of God would direct you. If He tells me, well, I may tell you; I may not.

    “That is why you must let Him come into you so you can hear from Him directly and nobody would be able to deceive you anymore,” Pastor Adeboye said.

    TNG reports the presidential election will hold on Saturday, 25 February 2023 to elect a new president to replace President Muhammadu Buhari.

    Top in the race are Peter Obi, candidate of the Labour Party; Atiku Abubakar, candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP); Bola Tinubu, candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

    Meanwhile, 18 political parties and their presidential candidates were cleared by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the 2023 presidential election.

    Why I did not release prophecy about Nigeria – Pastor Adeboye

    General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has disclosed why he did not release any prophecy on Nigeria for the New Year.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Pastor Adeboye made reference to a law passed in Ghana restricting alarmist New Year prophecies by men of God in the country.

    While making an altar call on New Year’s Day, the RCCG General Overseer, popularly referred to as Daddy GO, recalled Ghana police ordering the arrest of anyone who gives prophecies that can frighten.

    “That is why those of you who are not born again, you don’t even know the danger you are in, particularly in Nigeria of today. Those who came to watch night yesterday, when I was giving them a little bit of the prophecies for the year. I saw some of them looking at me, saying Daddy you didn’t say anything about Nigeria. I said in Ghana, they made a law.

    “The police said, anybody who gives any prophecy that can frighten must be arrested. They said but that is Ghana. Ghana is next door to Nigeria,” Pastor Adeboye said.

    Recall Daddy GO on New Year’s eve, released powerful prophecies for 2023 bordering on individuals, in particular, and the world in general.

    On world prophecies, Pastor Adeboye prophesied that the issue of migration will take a new turn in the New Year and that the world would be relatively more peaceful.

    How I lived first 18 years of my life without shoes – Pastor Adeboye

    General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has revealed how he lived the first 18 years of his life without shoes.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Pastor Adeboye, fondly referred to as Daddy GO, revealed this during a sermon, themed: ‘Perfect Gift’.

    The RCCG GO disclosed that while growing up, his parents were so poor that he had no shoes for the first 18 years of his life.

    Adeboye spoke about how things would change for the better for people when they accepted Christ. Using himself as an example, he illustrated how God can change the poor to the rich.

    “Some of you who know a little bit about my background, you know when they talk about people coming from a rocky background, that means from a background of hardship.

    “My own rocky background was rock among the rocks. My father was so poor, (that) poor people called him poor.

    “The elders have a saying, when there is hardship for the husband, and hardship for the wife, there must be hardship for the children.

    “The hardship rubbed off on me. For the first 18 years of my life, I had no shoes. My father was so poor.

    “The day he bought an umbrella, we were rejoicing, but look at me today, look at what Jesus can do, He can change the poor to the rich; change the unknown to the known,” Pastor Adeboye narrated.

    TNG recalls that Oluremi was 2018 ordained a pastor in the church at the Old Arena of RCCG, Lagos/Ibadan Expressway during the RCCG’s 66th annual convention themed “Dominion”.

    To become a pastor in RCCG, one must have gone through the preparatory stages of baptismal and workers in training class.

    The candidate must have completed a one-year course at the church’s School of Disciples and consistently participating in church activities and programmes.

    The person must also be a worker that has served in different or specific positions in the parish he attends and is recommended by senior pastors for ordination.

    Before her ordination, Oluremi has been a staunch believer of the Christian faith regardless of the faith of her husband, Tinubu, who belongs to the Muslim faith.

    Oluremi once said that her relationship with the APC presidential candidate is the “will of God” for her life.

  • How Adeboye attempted mediating in Oyetola, Aregbesola’s rift – Lawmaker

    How Adeboye attempted mediating in Oyetola, Aregbesola’s rift – Lawmaker

    Rep. Lawrence Ayeni (APC-Osun) says Pastor Enoch Adeboye has tried to settle the political rift between Osun Gov. Gboyega Oyetola and his predecessor, Rauf Aregbesola, to no avail.

    Adeboye, who is the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and Aregbesola, the incumbent Minister of Interior, are both from Osun.

    Ayeni, who represents Ilesha West/Ilesha East, Atakumosa East/Atakumosa West Federal Constituency of Osun, disclosed this in an interview with newsmen in Abuja on Monday.

    It would be recalled that the state’s July 15 governorship election was won by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) due to the rift between the Ileri/Oluwa group and The Osun Progressive (TOP).

    The IleriOluwa group is headed by the governor, while the TOP group is led by the minister.

    Ayeni said a reconciliation meeting aimed at settling the rift between the two gladiators was actually fixed and billed to be mediated by Adeboye but one of them failed to show up.

    The lawmaker said that although Adeboye initially declined to mediate in the duo’s political rift, saying he was not a politician, he later accepted the offer to mediate to settle it.

    “Adeboye said that for him, he was not a politician and he was not going to poke-nose because of certain things but the two of them could not meet in his house.

    “Had it been they were able to meet him may be the crisis would have been over.

    “One of them did not even go for the scheduled meeting with Adeboye and Adeboye said well, that is it,” he said.

    Rep Ayeni said that others like former interim Chairman of APC, Chief Bisi Akande, former Gov. Segun Osoba and even the Presidential candidate of APC, Sen Bola Tinubu also tried to settle the rift to no avail.

    He said that all the APC House of Reps members from Osun also did all their best possible to also resolve the crisis but met a brick wall.

    According to him, and up to the stage that the election was approaching, the chairman of the party called them, but if one side comes today, the other won’t come.

    The lawmaker said that to date, he could not explain what could have happened between the duo, adding that it was better the rift was settled so that it would not affect the party in the general elections.

    He called on the two to sit down and resolve the issue, adding that he was hopeful they would come together.

    Ayeni said that the major thing that contributed to the APC’s loss was a lack of unity, adding that there was no unity in the party and any house that was divided against itself would not stand.

    He said, “had it been we were united, the opposition could not have found their way even through the rigging, so we must ensure unity in the party.”

    The lawmaker said that everyone had seen the result of the division in the governorship election and learned a lesson from it.

    He added that Osun was critical to the South West and the party must put its house in order to win in 2023.

    Ayeni said that the division could also affect his own re-election bid, having secured his return ticket as the party’s candidate; hence all hands must be on deck to win.

    He said what surprised him most was that the APC was supposed to win Ijesha land with what he had done, “but we failed even in my local government.”

  • “I never asked Christians to buy guns” – Pastor Adeboye

    “I never asked Christians to buy guns” – Pastor Adeboye

    Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) says he never asked Christians to buy guns for self-protection.

    “I never asked Christians to go and buy guns. Samson in the Bible did not fight with guns,’’ the renowned cleric said on Sunday at the monthly thanksgiving live television programme of the church.

    The clarification came against media reports that the general overseer said it was now “fire-for-fire’’ for any attack on Christians.

    “Don’t buy guns. You don’t want to kill anybody. We just must make sure that unwanted visitors don’t come to our churches, so don’t go and buy guns,’’ he said.

    At the July Holy Ghost Service, on July 2, Pastor Adeboye had urged members of the church not to be afraid to attend church programmes because of terrorists attack on a church in Owo, Ondo State.

    Terrorists attacked Saint Francis Catholic Church, Owo, on June 5, killed more than 40 worshippers and injured many others.

    Adeboye urged Christians to rise to the occasion and call the bluff of the devil.

  • Pastor Adeboye inaugurates bank in Delta

    Pastor Adeboye inaugurates bank in Delta

    General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, on Monday, inaugurated a branch of Premium Trust Bank in Asaba, Delta.

    Adeboye, who was the Special Guest, was accompanied to the occasion by Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa. The cleric was in the state for a two-day RCCG programme, tagged: “Light Up Delta.”

    The general overseer, who had earlier attended the seventh anniversary thanksgiving and praise day of the Okowa-led government, said that giving praises to God would attract more blessings.

    According to him, it is not a secret that God is doing great things in Delta through Okowa.

    The pastor, while praying for the state, the government and the people, quoted Psalm 147:1,saying: “when we  praise God, we are asking Him to do more.

    “I am in Delta tell the forces of darkness that there is no room in this state.”

    On his part, Okowa urged banks and other financial institutions to de-emphasise profit and partner more with people for improved socio-economic development in the country.

    He expressed gladness with the establishment of the bank in the state and commended the Chief Executive Officer, Mr Emmanuel Emefienem, for the great feat.

    “I am glad to see what I see here today. It is beautiful and I thank God for that. I want to congratulate you today on this great feat and the fourth branch of your bank.

    “I also congratulate you, the managing director, on the very wonderful name you have given to the bank.

    “I believe it was Holy Spirit-led. I know the kind of person you are and I believe that the bank will be of great service to the people and impact lives.

    “Banking services are unique. I believe too that as long as it is done in such a mutual relationship with the customers where everybody wins, it is definitely going to be of a great service to the people.

    “We need banks to truly partner with the people and not just to make gains from them. I hope that your service will be geared in that direction,” he said.

    The governor assured that the people and government of the state would partner with the bank.

    Earlier at the anniversary, Okowa thanked God for His faithfulness, saying that at the beginning of his administration, things were tough but two years later, God manifested Himself as prophesied.

    He thanked God for his predecessors, Chief James Ibori and Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan, for laying the foundation upon which his administration was built.

    Okowa said that the reason for the thanksgiving was that “God has done much for us as a state.”

    The governor, however, urged the people to remain united and continue to promote peace in the state.

    In his address of welcome, Emefienem stated that the bank was not just out to do business but also to impact and improve on the lives of the people.

    “As a son of the soil, the bank is not just here to do business but also to impact on the people. I know the people and the terrain,” he said.
