Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to sack all the security chiefs in the country if they fail to end terrorism and banditry within 90 days.
The respected cleric also said the order should include the elimination of those sponsoring terrorism in the country.
Adeboye shared his thought in a video shared on X on Tuesday amid the surge in banditry across the country in recent time.
As a result, not a few Nigerians are mounting pressure on Christian religions leaders to speak up on the issue, saying their silence has become too worrisome, particularly as many Christians have been victims of banditry and terrorism in the country.
Two weeks ago, some Christians in the country, under the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN staged a protest to register their anger on the problem, calling on the federal government to act against terrorists killing Nigerians.
The protest comes on the heels of the abduction of over 40 students and teachers, from three schools in Ogbomosho by suspected Fulani terrorists.
In his reaction, Pastor Adeboye said the federal government must give security chiefs in the country an altimatum to end the killings, failure which they should be sacked.
The terrorists and their sponsors must be eliminated for the country to experience peace, the clergy man said.
Adeboye: “If I were asked to make suggestions, I would say quietly to our government, ‘Move fast and tell our security chiefs, get rid of these terrorists within 90 days or resign.
“When giving orders to the service chiefs this time around, we should make it clear to them that they are not only to eliminate the terrorists; they should eliminate their sponsors, no matter how influential they may be.”
