I don ’t trust politicians , they’re liars – Adeboye

The General Overseer
of Redeemed Christian Church of God,
Pastor Enoch ?Adeboye , on Friday said
he does not trust politicians.
Adeboye spoke while in ? Obafemi
Awolowo University , Ile -Ife , Osun State,
for a two-day interdenominational
prayer .
?
? According to the cleric, politicians in
most cases hardly fulfil their promises.
Adeboye justified his position by giving
an illustration with the story of three
travellers – an Indian , a Jew and a
politician .
He narrated that while on their journey,
the three travellers had some
challenges, and went to a farmer for
help but the farmer said he could only
accommodate two.
He said the Indian volunteered to sleep
in the barn but returned a few minutes
later that there was a cow there .
The Indian, according to the illustration ,
said he can’t sleep there because cows
are gods, worshipped in his country.
Adeboye said the Jew also came back
complaining that the pig inside where
he was placed was unclean.
The cleric added that the politician
volunteered to go and sleep among the
pigs .
Instead of the politician to come back
complaining, Adeboye said, it was the
pig and cow that came knocking that
the politician be sent away because he
had promised to make the environment,
including the barn , conducive with air -
conditioner .
“ I don’t trust politicians; politicians are
liars . They don’t fulfil most of their
promises . A politician can tell you that
they will give all of you ( students)
chicken each , which we all know it is
impossible ,” Adeboye said .
The RCCG general overseer , whose one
of his pastors, Prof . Yemi Osinbajo
( SAN) , is the vice- presidential candidate
for the All Progressives Congress , asked
Nigerian to stop worrying themselves
about who would emerge winner in the
next election .
He explained that God is a “ master
planner ,” who already planned the
leadership development of Nigeria.
He added , “Stop disturbing yourself
about who will be the President of
Nigeria. God has already planned who
will be the President of Nigeria. God
has already planned that before we
were born . God is not like human
beings , who doubts what is to be done .
He has plan for everything.”
Vice -Chancellor of OAU , Prof. Bamitale
Omole , commended Adeboye for his
yearly presence in the university , saying
his divine intervention were having
positive impacts in the school .
“ We appreciate the love of Pastor
Adeboye . With God and his presence
last year, we had no calamities and
also emerged as the best university in
Nigeria. I urge students to be prayerful
and cautious of what they do as God
will continue to protect us ,” he added.
