Is it the federal government that made laws? The laws are made by the national assembly only to be signed into law by the president. Stop mentioning Buhari for any law passed rather seek redress in the national assembly. They are essentially responsible for all the laws. |

“About me, no problem. RCCG is in 192 nations of the world and the Overseer in Nigeria will not drive me out of the camp. Is it just me or does Pst Adeboye sound very petty in that statement. More like someone who is pained that his choppings is about to be collected? ![]() 3 Likes |

thesicilian: SMH, it obvious that you are still not getting it. Atiku did nothing but fought for his own presidential ambition, which never come up. PYO has done what should be done. You shouldn't expect him to make any law. Let me ask you if you voted for Chris Okotie when he contested for president of this country, I know someone like you would laugh him to a scorn.

Cmoyor: Exactly, I'm confused. Pastors use this verse and many verses in the bible to convince members when they want them to obey Govt, which obviously they're supporting; they tell members leaders are God's representatives on earth and that God appoints them into positions. Why should we question them when they make laws that don't go well with religious leaders? isn't it tantamount to questioning God who appoints them? This law was introduced during GEJ, a Chrsitian, and I'm sure it wasn't enacted to attack christianity, but to regulate non-profit organisations, which mosques, churches etc belong to. It will definitely affect christians, muslims and several organisations. 5 Likes |

Thank you for this vital information,tafrica. I have lost respect for Adeboye. This is a law meant for all registered Charity organisations,NGOs and religious bodies,whether Christian or Islam or Ifa. He is personalising issues and inciting his gullible and dogmatic followers against the present govt. The so called man of god is also deceiving the people by lying that the law was made against Christians. Big Shame on him! 10 Likes |

He further accused the government of not allowing the church (RCCG) to continue with its stipulated lifetime 100 per cent salaries to its pensioners. I think Daddy is being economical with the truth here (i did not say daddy is lying), but how does the said law prevent you from the 100% lifetime salaries you propose to pay your pastors? The federal pension law only deals with salaries of working citizens, it does not stipulate how much you must pay your pensioners. You can decide to pay your pensioners 200% of their basic salaries if you want. The pension law only stipulate you pay at least 5% of basic salary to the pension administrator as pension, to be paid back when the worker retires, so i do not understand paying this 5% would affect the church from still paying pension to its worker. Speaking further, Adeboye disclosed that other fresh laws had been enacted by the government to ruffle the feathers of the church in the country, with a particularly targeted at the RCCG.Can daddy please give us a hint of these fresh laws that are particularly targeted at RCCG?

Lately the pastors have exhibited an attitude that shows they are worst than the politicians...Hence, I encourage the federal government to continue to meddle in church affair. Nobody is bigger than the almighty God the KING of all kings. Pastors with private jets in a country where 70% of the population lives below poverty level are irresponsible and heartless. Glory be to the almighty God. 7 Likes |

ugosly:You will get to know a man's true mien when he's under pressure! Now a discerning mind will see the reasons for the Pastor's outbursts when he went to visit Fayose in Ekiti a while ago! The truth is that the government cannot afford to leave the poor masses under the whim and caprice of our religious leaders! Though, the masses are gullible and sometimes outright stupid when it comes to matters of religion, they still need to be protected! The truth is that people are being exploited by the religious leaders who have turned it into a family enterprises! 9 Likes 1 Share |

Olu317: I wouldn't have dignified you with a response but your crass ignorance was legendary. In your vain mind, you were quick to refer to the bible as a reference in this case. Why didn't you refer to the bible when most of the pastors were doing many things unbiblical to enrich themselves. Sow in pounds, reap in pounds among others. In the bible, when one new leader emerged, the previous melted into the background. People like u won't question why the sudden change in RCCG structure (to what ends?) - G.O Nigeria and spiritual leader International. Your pastors can't be ever wrong. They can't be questioned. They are too big to subject themselves to constituted authority. No thanks to people of your ilks. Continue to live your miserable life like this while expecting Nigeria to turn to America in a blink of an eye. 3 Likes |

Nairalanded:Your comments are so full of contradictions I don't even know where to start: 1. Your God is mighty and can fight for Himself (true) but the case was in court for 5years and finally lost. Does that mean God had a different plan from what RCCG was pursuing? 2. If the FRC law is in the interest of the church like you say, since the replacements are from within the church also, why are they complaining? He's still the Don't get me wrong. I'm not in support of the FGN. The advantage of having a pastor up there is supposed to be, to prevent issues like this. The moment you start allowing an islamocentric federal government to meddle in church affairs, there's no idea the extent they can go. Some things are better just not started. 1 Like 1 Share |

Frankly speaking Redeem Traffic jam is horrendous and doesn't speak well of them. This is an excess that the government shouldn't have tolerated. Also, I don't think Buhari is the mastermind behind these laws. I suspect it's Adeosun, the British raised ex commissioner of finance of Ogun state who is now the Minister of that ministry in Abuja. For someone raised in secular Britain where they are not religious, the traffic jams caused by church activities must have shocked and incensed her. She obviously felt they needed to be tamed. The way it looked, these religious houses were above the state and the law. To her, it should be the other way round. She must have been powerless to act then as the governor would be toying with a loss at the polling booth. At the centre now and with a unsentimental president who even tried to arrest Tompolo, an opportunity was now open. However, successive governments have shrunk from taking them on either because the president is religious or does not want to alienate a massive voting block. Adeboye is one of the 50 most influential men in the world. I am sure he controls at least a million votes. Already, the reprisal has started. I am eating pop corn while watching out how things unfold 2 Likes |

creserve: Whilst I agree with what you have said do you see the FG (or northern state governors) doing anything to combat the power held by the religious/traditional leaders in the North? The previous administration tried with the Almajiri schools and the various universities - but what is this administration doing? What are the state governors doing? |

thesicilian: Mr Man, here are your answers: 1: The church is a registered entity with the corporate affairs commission, so the church must obey the laws of the land, if the church bodies lost in court to prevent the implementation of the law then the law needs to be implemented. So what are you saying about God and RCCG here? So if a church builds on a pipeline and the government directs them to demolish the church building does it mean the churchs' spiritual goal is what is being attacked here? 2: Who are the "they" you said are complaining? The church or the federal government? The federal government isn't complaining, they have enacted a law and the church has to follow it, its the church members who are complaining, is the church mainly concentrated on whoever leeds the church administratively? Our spiritual goals is what is key, I would shout as a Christian when the federal government says Christians shouldn't pray in public or attend church services openly, what's the fuss about making the church appoint a new administrative head after 20 years? If the church is credible and transparent something like this shouldn't be an issue. 3 Likes |
