Insecurity: Adeboye seeks prayers for military, security agencies

General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, on Sunday called on Nigerians to support the military and other security agencies with prayers in their task of addressing security challenges in the country.

Adeboye made the call at his monthly telecast message with the theme: “Our true shield and defence” via the church’s television at the Redemption Camp, Ogun state.

The call to pray for the security agencies is coming against the backdrop of the spate of kidnapping, banditry and insurgency in the country.

Pastor Adeboye expressed concern over the feelings by a section of Nigerians that the security agencies were not doing enough to curtail insecurity, saying that they were doing their best.

He however, said that Nigerians should acknowledge the fact that the security operatives too have their limitations which can also have adverse effect on their operations.

The general overseer chided those who were in the habit of criticising the military, adding that they should rather pray for them to be able to curtail insecurity so that the country can be at peace.

“Some of us, all we know is to criticise the military, but we need to know that they too are human beings like us and they have their limitations. What we should do is to continue to pray for them so that they can record success in their operations,” Adeboye said.

The renowned cleric said that God is about to deal with the invincible enemies of Nigeria.
