“The idea that Pastor Adeboye attacked President Jonathan and has remained silent ever since is false and does not serve either the former President or Pastor Adeboye well. It will also not augur well for Nigeria.”

He stated this via his X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @renoomokri on Monday, June 17.

“He publicly prayed for then-President Jonathan before the 2011 and 2015 elections. And this was especially more important in 2015 because General Buhari's running mate was an RCCG Pastor.”

He said contrary to a false narrative, Pastor Adeboye was more critical of the Muhamamdu Buhari administration than Jonathan.

Omokri explained that Adeboye’s criticism had more to do with the insecurity of lives than the economy.
