2015 Elections: CAN Disappoints Osinbajo And Endorse Jonathan by melvinjames: 8:01pm On Feb 03, 2015
[size=18pt]CAN Endorses GEJ[/size]
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has endorsed the candidacy of President Goodluck Jonathan for the February 14 presidential elections.

With this endorsement, he is not recognising the candidacy of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari and his running mate, Prof. Yemi Osinbanjo with the latter being a pastor under him

Adeboye made his position known during a meeting of leaders of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) held at the Redemption Camp where the leaders of the two bodies had convened the meeting to pray for the country and for successful general elections.

The meeting, however, turned out to be for a secret endorsement of Jonathan’s candidacy.

In attendance at the meeting were Adeboye, Bishop David Oyedepo of the Winners Chapel; Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, CAN President; Rev. Felix Omobude, PFN President; Pastor Paul Adefarasin, PFN Vice President; Pastor Wale Adefarasin of the Guiding Light Assembly and other key Christian leaders in the nation.

Pastor Osinbajo was also at the meeting to seek their blessing to support him and the candidacy of Muhammed Buhari.

Pastor Paul Adefarasin was said to have broken the silence when he asked Adeboye who they should support since his ‘son’, Pastor Osinbajo is vying for the vice presidency with Buhari.

They wanted Adeboye to say something and Osinbajo was watching as he believed that Adeboye will certainly ask other leaders to endorse him, but he was disappointed.

Adeboye was said to have told them that he is a man under authority and that since he is under the authority of CAN and PFN, whoever they endorsed, he would support and go with them.

It was then that Oyedepo stood up and said he had prayed and that God was leading him to endorse and support Jonathan and that was the script the Christian leaders adopted at the expense of Osinbajo.

Instead of the meeting being for prayer for the nation, it was gathered that it turned out to be for the secret endorsement of Jonathan as all the leaders present except Osinbanjo agreed that CAN and PFN should go with Jonathan.

Osinbajo was not allowed to address the Christian leaders, giving the excuse that since the other contesting party was not present, they would not allow him to address the audience.

lol Endorsement from pastors/owners of private jets? Jets bought with tithe (from impoverish families) money?

It defeats the whole purpose of the change we need in Nigeria.


They will endorse Buhari when they listen to the voice of their God......saTAN dey whisper very loud.

Pastors vote for Jonathan, members for Buhari. Gone are the days when they lead us astray. I'll choose whom I want my president to be same way I chose whom my pastor is.

I seems not to believe this write up but, peradventure if the stories is true, then the so called CAN and PFN has only express their own mind and none of them stand to represent any genuine child of God(Christian). Also, just to remind whoever among them that is saying God said when God has not spoken, we shall all give account on the day of judgement. Money will finish but past will forever hunt you. Professor Osinbajo does not need their vote. Professor Yemi Osinbajo has nothing to worry about, the masses Christian and Nigeria Youth are behind you and GMB, they are still coming to pay you a visit at the villa come what May 29. God bless Nigeria.

You seems to be contradicting yourself. Where did you meet with all christians and the Nigeria Youth and they told you that they are behind the Jihadist or just your own wishful thinking or dream.
