Adeboye to Nigerians: help law enforcement agents  to defeat terrorists
The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has urged Nigerians to support  and cooperate with law enforcement agents to ensure lasting peace.
Pastor Adeboye spoke yesterday at the ‘Let’s Go a fishing’ programme organised by the RCCG, Region One held at the CMD field, Magodo, Lagos mainland.
The programme brought together thousands of Christian faithful from across Lagos. It featured thanksgiving, bible teaching and prophetic ministration.
According to him, the success achieved by the military in tackling insurgency in part of the country is commendable and can be sustained through intelligence gathering mechanism put in place by security operatives .
Pastor Adeboye said  Boko Haram insurgency was an internal insecurity problem that can be curtailed through a transparent partnership arrangement between the local people and the security operative.
He said: “Let us do our best to cooperate with law enforcement agencies  by volunteering vital information that would be investigated upon and crime and any form of criminality will be reduce in our society”.
He urged Nigerians to “harmonise our cultural, tribal and religious differences and ensure adequate security of lives and properties is very germane for our wellbeing”.
Pastor Adeboye, who spoke through the Provincial Pastor of Lagos Province 12, Pastor Ola Adejubee, asserted that peace is the desire of any good citizens in any nation, but can be sustained through the channel of the holy ghost, repentance from evil and pleasing God at all times.
He lamented that many people are religious but they live their lives at variance with God’s words and expect to have peace, said “we must play our part by repenting of our sines and live a life that pleases God”.
He cited King Solomon who throughout his kingship never fought a battle, “Jesus is the prince of peace and he has the ability to reinforce peace when we do his will,” he said.
The wife of the Regional Pastor of Lagos Province 1 of RCCG, Pastor Rachel Odesola, appealed to individuals being persecuted for their faith to take solace in Christ “who is our rock, defender buckler and shield”.
