[NEWS] ADEBOYE ON XENOPHOBIA

FOLLOWING THE XENOPHOBIC ATTACKS IN SOUTH AFRICA, THE GENERAL OVERSEER OF THE REDEEMED CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF GOD (RCCG), PASTOR ENOCH ADEBOYE HAS APPEALED TO NIGERIANS NOT TO RETALIATE.

HE SAID THAT IT IS BETTER TO LEAVE THE MATTER FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO HANDLE, AND NOT FOR CITIZENS TO TAKE LAWS INTO THEIR HANDS.

HE MADE THIS APPEAL ON FRIDAY NIGHT, AT THE MONTHLY HOLY GHOST SERVICE OF THE CHURCH, TAGGED “LIFTED INTO GLORY.”

NIGERIANS HAD DURING THE WEEK ATTACKED BUSINESS AND FIRMS OF SOUTH AFRICAN ORIGIN IN MAJOR PARTS OF THE COUNTRY, IN RETALIATION OF ATTACKS SUFFERED BY NIGERIANS LIVING IN SOUTH AFRICA.

IT IS ALLEGED THAT THE PEOPLE OF THE RAINBOW NATION WERE AGAINST THE NIGERIANS BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THAT THE FOREIGNERS ARE OVERTAKING THEIR JOBS IN THEIR OWN LAND.
