‘I Don’t Want To Talk To Adeboye’ – Prophet Odumeje

The founder of the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry, Chukwuemeka Odumeje, has berated General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Enoch Adeboye, over the comment that President Bola Tinubu was doing his best to address Nigeria’s security challenges.

NEWSNGR reports that Odumeje, speaking during a recent sermon, said pastors have a biblical responsibility to rebuke bad governments rather than seek to benefit from those in power.

While urging religious leaders to speak the truth, Odumeje said he does not want to talk to Adeboye.

The Anambra-born warned Nigerians to stop praising government executives, insisting that the country’s resources are not properly managed.

He said, “I don’t want to talk to Adeboye; I don’t want to talk to that man. Do you know what they call a pastor? Go to the Bible, a pastor must rebuke a bad government. They shouldn’t look to benefit from it. We are fathers in the Lord. It is God who makes my voice heard in the world.

“It’s not because of you. It is for me to tell people the truth of what is happening, not for you. You don’t know me from anywhere. Any time you try to fight for the truth, or speak against the evil government of Nigeria, they will pursue you.

“People are managing our resources and lavishing our resources, and we are praising them for managing resources that we sent them to look after for us. Governors, senators, presidents, or whatever you want to call them, they are there as your representatives. They are not there for you to serve them. They are there to serve every citizen of Nigeria, and they owe you accountability for the job you sent them to do, to serve you as a governor, a senator, or a president.

“We don’t know our rights in this country. That is why you see people celebrating ordinary roads: many countries built theirs long ago and have already forgotten about them, yet here we are celebrating them. The road you build is not your money. As a governor, it’s not your money. As a senator, it’s not your money. As a president, it’s not your money. It’s the money of all of us, the citizens of Nigeria.”
