The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye is, at the moment, leading a procession to end the spate of insecurity and k*llings in Nigeria.

Adeboye on Sunday during the monthly Thanksgiving Service at the church’s National Headquarters in Ebute Meta, Lagos State, commenced the protest from Ebute Meta and is expected to lead it to Atan Cemetery in Yaba metropolis and back.



Adeboye had led his congregation on prayers for the peace and security of the country, saying, “Lord, have mercy on Nigeria. Let there be peace and security in Nigeria. God sees all things and knows where the t*rrorists are hiding, we pray that God send His light to Nigeria and expose the evildoers in the country.

He had said, “After the service, we are all going for a prayer walk. We ’ll march according to age. There are some who would march round the church because of their age and there are some who would march with me to Atan Cemetery and back.”

The Christian Association of Nigeria had declared a three- day fasting and prayer beginning January 31 st to empower the government and the military forces in the fight against terrorism and the spate of k*llings in the country. CAN President, Dr Samson Ayokunle had said the spiritual exercise would end today February 2 with a prayer walk. Punch Reports

The Christian Association of Nigeria had in a statement over a week ago, called on all Christians across the country to embark on a prayer walk to protest the spate of insecurity in the country especially attacks targeted at Christians.

CAN President, Dr Samson Ayokunle, while briefing journalists in Abuja, said the walk was aimed at rendering prayers for the country, and to call on the Buhari administration to do more to protect Christians in the country.




He added that Buhari's failure in the past years to identify, apprehend and prosecute criminal elements carrying out terr*r attacks against Christians, has strengthen the believe that his government is colluding with insurgents to exterminate Christians in Nigeria.
