The statement further dismissed claims that Pastor Adeboye should be directing military operations to rescue abducted victims, reminding the public that he holds no governmental or military authority as Commander-in-Chief. The church reiterated that such responsibilities lie with the state and its security agencies, not religious leaders.
Despite the church’s clarifications, social media reactions remain divided. Some users accused the RCCG of being complicit with corrupt political elites, while others criticized the church for not doing enough to address national crises. Comments from users like @kaykasper and @AdeChukwudile reflected deep public frustration, alleging that the church has aligned too closely with the ruling APC and failed to speak out against injustice.
The RCCG’s response underscores its commitment to transparency and accountability, as it seeks to correct misinformation and protect the integrity of its leadership. As Nigeria continues to grapple with security and governance challenges, the church’s stance highlights the delicate balance between spiritual leadership and public engagement in a time of national crisis.
