Meanwhile, TheRadar earlier reported that the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, came under fire on social media for saying Nigeria needed a spiritual solution to its problems.
In a video circulating on social media, Adeboye said Nigerian leaders are doing everything in their power to solve the problems of the country but according to him, Nigeria’s problems require divine intervention as the problems are more spiritual than political.
