According to PM News, Pastor
Bakare in a sermon title “The Sweet And Sour Ministry Of The Prophet”, said
”some of the compromising Christian leaders he often described as
palace prophets, were only after their pockets, which was why they have queued behind Jonathan and rejected their son.”
palace prophets, were only after their pockets, which was why they have queued behind Jonathan and rejected their son.”
He explained that “a
prophet is sent to bring change not build consensus,” adding that “whenever you
compromise what is right in order to gain acceptance with men, you lose
acceptance with God.”
Findings by PM News reveal
that the Leaders of CAN and PFN had met at the Redemption Camp of the Redeemed
Christian Church of God, RCCG, to pray for the nation and the forthcoming
election, but the meeting turned out to be for a secret endorsement of
Jonathan’s candidacy.
In attendance at the
meeting, were Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer, RCCG; Bishop David
Oyedepo of the Winners Chapel; Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, CAN President; Rev.
Felix Omobude, PFN President; Pastor Paul Adefarasin, PFN Vice President;
Pastor Wale Adefarasin of the Guiding Light Assembly and other key Christian
leaders in the nation.
Pastor Osinbajo was also at
the meeting to seek their blessing to support him and the candidacy of General
Muhammed Buhari.
Pastor Paul Adefarasin was
said to have broken the silence when he asked Adeboye who they should support
since his ‘son’, Pastor Osinbajo is vying for the vice presidency with Buhari.
They wanted Aeboye to say something and Osinbajo was watching as he believed
that ‘Baba’ will certainly ask other leaders to endorse him, but he was
disappointed.
Adeboye was said to have
told them that he is a man under authority and that since he is under the
authority of CAN and PFN, whoever they endorsed, he would support and go with
them.
It was then that Oyedepo
stood up and said he had prayed and that God was leading him to endorse and
support Jonathan and that was the script the Christian leaders adopted at the
expense of Osinbajo.
Instead of the meeting
being for prayer for the nation, it was gathered that it turned out to be for
the secret endorsement of Jonathan as all the leaders present except Osinbanjo
agreed that CAN and PFN should go with Jonathan.
Osinbajo was not allowed to
address the Christian leaders, giving the excuse that since the other
contesting party was not present, they would not allow him to address the
audience.
He was said to be downcast
as his own rejected his aspiration.
Severall Nigerian pastors
have openly supported President Jonathan running for a second term.
On January 26, 2015 Sunday,
President Goodluck made a surprise appearance at Bishop David Oyedepo’s Living
Faith Church, also known as Winners Chapel, Ota, Ogun State, asking the
congregation to pray for the country.
The visit resulted in an alleged
threat by Bishop Oyedepo to open the gate of Hell on those who opposed
Jonathan. The Bishop has however denied the allegations, describing them as as
an attempt to rubbish his reputation.
