Adeboye Issues Directive To Nigerians On Rising Insecurity

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has asked Nigerians to keep praying for the country amidst the rising insecurity in the country.

In a tweet via his Twitter handle on Wednesday, the popular cleric also urged Nigerians to pray for the rest of the world.

Concerning the killings experienced across the country, the RCCG pastor asked God to show mercy on Nigeria and heal the West African country.

He wrote, “Keep praying for Nigeria and the rest of the world in these difficult times. It is my prayer that God will have mercy on Nigeria and heal our land in Jesus Name.”

Meanwhile, students of the Federal University of Agriculture Makurdi, Benue State, abducted by bandits have regained their freedom.

Recall that the management of the school on Monday disclosed that an unspecified number of students were abducted while studying in a theatre hall at the College of Engineering on campus.

The Director of Information, Protocol and Public Relations (IPPR) of the University, Mrs Rosemary Waku, on Wednesday, noted that the students have regained their freedom.

She further stated that two of the students were released on Tuesday, while the others earlier escaped from their abductors.

“The students of FUAM that were kidnapped have been released.”

“The two students, Israel Farren Kwaghgee and Solomon Salifu came back to campus yesterday (27/4/21),” the IPPR director stated.

Waku added that the released students are currently undergoing medical attention.

The development was confirmed by the spokesman of the Benue command, DSP Catherine Anene.

“Kidnapped students of the University of Agriculture have been released unhurt. Investigation into the case continues please,” she posited.
