RCCG ISSUES STATEMENT ON MURDERED FEMALE PREACHER IN ABUJA

The Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has expressed shock and sorrow over the murder of Deaconess Olawale.

A statement by the head of the church’s Media and Public Relations Department, Pastor Segun Adegbiji, said: “We are indeed in a sad mood in RCCG. As sweet as heaven is, death of our youths is not what we wish for.

We shall not cease to pray that God will end bloodshed in Nigeria and all over the world.

“We sympathise with the widower, our pastor, Elisha Olawale and their seven children.

Our Mother-in-Israel, Pastor Folu Adeboye and Pastor Emmanuel Ibitayo of Region10, Abuja, paid a condolence visit to the family on Sunday.”
