Respected man of God and General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, says God has not told him whether there would an election next year.
The octogenarian preacher said this on Sunday at the monthly Thanksgiving Service of the Church.
On the contrary, Adeboye said God spoke to him about the 2019 elections more than a year to the election but the case has not been so with the 2023 election.
He quickly added that God might still speak to him about the 2023 general elections but He has not spoken to him yet.
The cleric expressed deep concern over the continuous killings in Kaduna State, Nigeria’s rising debt profile, crude oil theft, amongst other national challenges.
The 80yr old cleric also cautioned that politics is not his calling and he will never be a politician but continue to play the role of a father to all.
He stressed that he does not support any presidential aspirant ahead of the 2023 general elections.
Adeboye said the clarification was important amid the criticisms against the church’s creation of a Politics Directorate and the instruction to members to be politically involved in the 2023 electioneering process.
Adeboye lamented that though Nigeria was able to settle its debt during then President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration, the nation has plunged deeply into the mire of debt.
The cleric also said he is more concerned about praying for Nigeria to get out of its depressing throes than the 2023 elections.
