I did not carry placard in protest against Jonathan — Adeboye

Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has denounced journalists for misrepresenting the date he carried a placard during a prayer walk. Adeboye stated that the incident happened in 2020, five years after former President Goodluck Jonathan left office in 2015, and insisted that the walk was organized to pray against insecurity and killings in the country.

The cleric made these remarks during his congregation's November Thanksgiving service, addressing the widespread acceptance of a report that falsely linked the incident to Jonathan's administration. Adeboye emphasized that journalists failed to investigate the circumstances surrounding the event before publishing the report, accusing them of twisting the facts.
