Xenophobia : Pastor Adeboye Appeals To Nigerians Not To Revenge!

Following the recent xenophobia S.A attacksThe general overseer of the Redeemed

Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch

Adeboye, has reacted and appealed and to Nigerians not to

engage in reprisal attacks against South

Africans following the violence which trailed

the wave of xenophobia in South Africa.

Adeboye made the appeal in his sermon on

Friday night, September 6, at the September

Holy Ghost Service at the Redemption Camp on

the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, NAN reports.

Adeboye stated that an average South African

is a decent person. He likened the situation in

South Africa to the period of unrest in Nigerian

universities in which only a handful of students

usually engaged in trouble making.

According to the popular cleric, bringing

Nigerians back home is not the solution to the

problem. He urged Nigerians to allow the

government handle the issue.

“ Let us leave this job to the government. Let

them solve this problem at the governmental

level. Pray for them that God will give them

wisdom, understanding and ability to do it, " he

said.

There was an overwhelming support for

Adeboye’s appeal when he called for a voice

vote on the matter.
