The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has warned that pastors collecting bribes from politicians risk being consumed by the “Almighty’s fire.” Adeboye disclosed this on his official Facebook page on Wednesday in reaction to the allegations by Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers state that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, had bribed some pastors with N6bn to work against the All Progressives Congress , APC, and its presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari. It would be recalled that Amaechi had on Tuesday while speaking at a rally 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.” However, Adeboye in his reaction, said: “I Read in the Newspaper this morning (Wednesday) that one of the serving Governors in Nigeria said that some Pastor(S) in Nigeria collected 6 Billion Naira 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(S) who collected such money they should please return such as quickly as possible before the fire of the almighty consumes you.”
