Pastor Adeboye picks side on CAMA bill
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Enoch Adejare Adeboye, has dismissed the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA), which was consented to by President Muhammadu Buhari, Daily Times gathered.
The President accented to the CAMA 2020 bill on August 7 and it has gotten reactions from NGOs, religious and human rights associations, who are kicking against certain segments of the law especially area 839.
The new law, “Segment 839 (1) gives the commission the power to suspend trustees of affiliations and choose temporary supervisors to deal with the undertakings of the affiliation where it sensibly accepts that – (a) There are misconduct and mismanagement in the activities of the organization or affiliation.”
Responding to the bill, RCCG’s Head of Media and Public Relations, Pastor Olaitan Olubiyi said that Adeboye’s assessment on the issue isn’t always different from whatever the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) embrace.

As indicated by Olubiyi, Pastor Adeboye stays with what CAN and PFN says.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), a week ago described the Company and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) as satanic.
CAN while dismissing the bill, approached President Buhari to stop the usage of “the unpalatable and wicked law” until religious institutions are absolved from it
It kept up that the bill will do nothing but bad, including that it is wicked, unforgivable and an evil breeze.
Addressing Vanguard, Olubiyi was cited as saying, “We generally adjust ourselves to whatever CAN and PFN says. The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) doesn’t take any choice that is contrary to CAN and PFN and something very similar applies concerning this very issue.
“Daddy won’t stand uniquely firm in contrary to the two associations, CAN and PFN. CAN and PFN have spoken on the issue of CAMA and to the extent to which the Redeemed Christian Church of God is concerned, that is our position as well. We are in agreement with that stand,”
