The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor EA Adeboye has finally weighed his support for the nationwide protest against police brutality and extradjudicial killings in Nigeria.

After what it looked like an intended silence on the part of churches and Pastors on the current issue of brutality and excesses of the men of the defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad, the G.O has released a statement backing the demonstration.

Dropping a tweet to accompany a statement signed by the Assistant General Overseer, Pastor Johnson F. Adesola, the church declared its support.

The tweet read: “Our daughters will not be able to prophesy and young men will not be able to see visions if we don’t keep them alive.
