The General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has objected to the plan by the Central Bank of Nigeria to redesign the N200, N500, and N1,000 notes.

Adeboye who spoke at the RCCG’s Holy Service at the weekend, said while the value of naira was on rapid fall, with many unable to afford the essentials of life, the government was thinking of ‘beautifying it’.

He said; “You know what’s going on in our country. It doesn’t even make sense anymore. Our naira now is not even worth the paper it is printed on. And while people are hungry, trying to find enough money to buy bread to eat, our bosses are thinking of making the naira more beautiful, even if it can’t buy bread, at least, it will look beautiful. Oh Lord, have mercy.”

He advised Nigerians to learn to take the problems besetting the country in their strides so as not to develop hypertension:

“We have problems in the land now. Things seem to be getting funnier and funnier. If you don’t learn to laugh in Nigeria now, you will develop hypertension,” he said.

Adeboye said God had not told him yet whether there would be an election in Nigeria as scheduled.

“Do you know that up till now, and this is November, up till now, Daddy (God) hasn’t told me yet that there is going to be an election next year?

“We continue of course as if there is going to be. I am saying that Adeboye, I am not talking of other people, God has not told me yet. The yet must be in capital (letters). He may tell me tomorrow; I don’t know but as of this moment, he hasn’t told whether or not there will be an election next year,” he said.

“I am not trying to frighten you. I am not a prophet, I am just a pastor,” he added.

He said he would pray for any politician who comes to him for prayers as his duty is to pray, but only God answers.

Pastor Adeboye also announced a fast and prayer programme for Nigeria that would hold between November 26 and December 2, 2022.

 

Meanwhile, presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar yesterday said he would nominated his former boss and ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo for a Nobel Peace Prize Award for his role in ensuring peace in Africa, the last of which was his intervention which resolved the Ethiopia-Tigray conflict.

 

Atiku in a statement congratulating Obasanjo for his role in Ethiopia described the former president as the ultimate African statesman.

 

He added that Obasanjo’s image ought to be in the redesigned naira note to inspire future generations of Nigerians to sacrifice for their nation and continent.

In a statement he personally signed Atiku said, “I celebrate the extraordinary prowess of His Excellency, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, in bringing peace to Ethiopia. I am not surprised. I know my boss. He did the same thing in Liberia and São Tomé and Príncipe during our time in office. If for nothing else, he is most deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize, and I will nominate him when entries are open for nominations.

“Africa is blessed to have a statesman of such impeccable democratic credentials as Chief Obasanjo. A man whose image ought to be in the redesigned naira note to inspire future generations of Nigerians to sacrifice for their nation and continent.”
