The Redeemed Christian Church of God has
dissociated itself from rumours making the rounds that its General
Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, gave his blessings to the
vice-presidential ambition of a former Lagos State Attorney General and
Commissioner for Justice, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.
The All Progressives Congress had on
Wednesday named Osinbajo, who is said to be Adeboye’s close ally, as the
running mate of its presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari
(retd.).
The RCCG denied celebrating the emergence of the law professor who pastors its Olive Parish located on Banana Island, Lagos.
Writing on its official Twitter page on Wednesday, the church said it does not dabble into politics in any shade or colouration.
“We are a mission and we do not meddle
in politics,” the RCCG stated while urging Nigerians to be wary of
fictitious and misleading social media accounts dragging its name into
the murky waters of politics.(PUNCH)
