The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of
God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has warned that pastors
collecting bribes from politicians risk the wrath of God.
It can be recalled that an allegation was made by the
Director General of the All Progressives Congress
Presidential Campaign Organisation, Rotimi Amaechi.
Amaechi, who is also the Governor of Rivers State, had
accused the ruling party of bribing a group of Nigerian
pastors with N6 Billion to support Jonathan.
Adeboye however said this on his official Facebook page on
Wednesday while reacting to allegations by the Rivers State
Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, that the Peoples Democratic
Party had bribed some pastors with N6bn to work against
the All Progressives Congress and its presidential
candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.)
However, Adeboye, said, “I read in the newspaper this
morning that one of the serving governors in Nigeria said
that some pastors in Nigeria collected N6bn from
politicians for the purpose of influencing their members to
vote a certain candidate in the coming elections.
“May I humbly request that if there be any pastor or pastors
who collected such money, they should please return such
as quickly as possible before the fire of the Almighty
consumes you.”
Amaechi, had on Tuesday, told his supporters not to be
deceived by pastors, whom he said, were campaigning
against Buhari because he was a Muslim
He had said, “Some pastors collected N6bn and they are
circulating document and telling you not to vote for an
Hausa man; not to vote for a Muslim; that they want to
Islamise Nigeria. Tell them to return our N6bn.
“They gave them N6bn; they should return it to the Federal
Government coffers. They will tell you that Buhari wants to
Islamise Nigeria; tell them we are too educated.
“I am a Catholic, but no Catholic priest has told me that
story right now in the Catholic Church because, I will ask
him how. If any pastor tells you that, tell him to return the
money.
“Nobody can Islamise Nigeria; they have commercialised
Jesus Christ. They should stop commercialising the
Christian faith. You know what Jesus Christ did in the
temple? He chased them away.” CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
