Adeboye fires back at Sowore
General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Enoch Adeboye has responded to comments by activist Omoyele Sowore, who described him, David Oyedepo, and William Kumuyi as fathers of Christians in Nigeria.
Adeboye made the remark during a workers’ meeting at Redemption City along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway on Saturday.
Adeboye rejected the label, clarifying that he does not see himself as a national Christian leader.
“Sowore said that we are not the fathers of Christians but we are denominational fathers. He is very correct. I don’t want to be father of all Christians in Nigeria. I’m satisfied with being the father of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. That’s enough assignment for me.
“I have never wanted to be the father of all Christians in Nigeria. The CAN President is the father leader of Christians in Nigeria.”
