Former Deputy National Publicity
Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Timi Frank, on Monday called
on the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor
Enoch Adeboye, to sanction Vice President Yemi Osinbajo for his silence in the
face of injustice in the current administration.
Frank urged Adeboye to withdraw
Osinbajo’s pastoral position in the RCCG to redeem the image of the church
which he alleged has been battered by the Vice President’s silence.
He said without judging Osinbajo,
the interest of Christian community in the country was threatened, adding that
because of political power, Pastor Osinbajo has “suddenly become Galatian for
crumbs” therefore keeping quiet amidst injustices in the country.
In a statement he issued in
reaction the suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Justice Walter
Onnoghen by President Muhammadu Buhari, lopsided appointments in favour of
Northern Hausa-Fulani Muslims, Frank requested Osinbajo, who is also a legal
luminary, to tell the world his position and the role he played in what he described
as an “illegality”.
According to Frank, nobody is
asking Osinbajo to defend Christians who have committed an offence, but to
distinguish himself and always speak the truth to the authority even though he
is part of it.
“Pastor Adeboye should know that
Osinbajo is misrepresenting the RCCG in government as one of the ordained
pastors in the ministry, so he needs to be called to order.
“The word of God says that people
rejoice when righteous is in power’ but can the same be said of Osinbajo and
Buhari today?
“Pastor Osinbajo should respect
his faith and not the power that be. Like biblical prophets; Isaiah, Ezekiah
and others, Osinbajo should speak the truth and shame the devil because his
fear of losing political power seems to have beclouded the Redeemed pastor.
“Disgracefully, at a time the
whole world is waiting to hear Osinbajo’s opinion on the suspension of CJN,
even as a lawyer he has suddenly gone quiet but if it is time to illegally buy
votes through sharing of tradermoney in the market, the Redeem pastor will be
in the forefront,” Frank stated.
