National prayer programme not organised by Adeboye, RCCG — PFN tells critics

The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria has pushed back against claims that its recent nationwide prayer programme was organised by Pastor Enoch Adeboye or the Redeemed Christian Church of God.

As The PUNCH reports, PFN described the allegations as false and misleading, insisting the initiative was conceived, directed and executed entirely by the fellowship.

PFN National Secretary, Bishop David Bakare, said RCCG merely participated as a member church and had no role in planning or directing the exercise. He also clarified that gatherings held on the final day coincided with Pentecost Sunday, a global Christian observance celebrated across denominations.

The fellowship said it shelved plans for public processions on security grounds and declared the programme a success, urging Nigerians to reject misinformation and support peace, unity and national progress.
