Pastor Enoch Adeboye, leader of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has refuted claims that he protested against former President Goodluck Jonathan. The controversy stems from a photograph circulated suggesting he held a placard against Jonathan during a prayer walk in 2020. Adeboye clarified that the image depicts a prayer exercise in 2020, five years after Jonathan's presidency ended in 2015.
He accused a journalist of distorting the event by presenting it as a political demonstration against Jonathan. Adeboye emphasized the importance of fact-checking and investigative journalism, lamenting that the story gained traction without proper verification of the historical context.
