Pastor Enoch Adeboye<\/strong>, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG),<\/strong> yesterday said he does not trust politicians during a two-day interdenominational prayer at the Obafemi Awolowo University<\/strong>, Ile-Ife, Nigeria according to Nigerian Punch<\/strong>.\u00a0The cleric said, \u201cI don\u2019t trust politicians. Politicians are liars. They don\u2019t fulfil most of their promises. A politician can tell you that they will give all of you (students) chicken each, which we all know it is impossible.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The RCCG General Overseer, also implored Nigerians to quit worrying about who will emerge the winner in the next general elections and said, \u201cGod has already planned who will be the President of Nigeria. God has already planned that before we were born. God is not like human beings who doubt what is to be done. He has plan for everything<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pastor Adeboye\u00a0further illustrated the notion of politicians not making good their promises with the story of 3 travelers \u2013 an Indian, a Jew and a politician.<\/p>\n

He said the 3 travelers while travelling had a problem and went to a farmer for help, but the farmer said he only had space to accommodate two people. Pastor Adeboye then said, the Indian volunteered to sleep in the barn, but on getting to the barn and seeing the cows there said he could not sleep there because cows were like gods and worshiped in his country.<\/p>\n

He continued by saying\u00a0the Jew returned back complaining that the barn was dirty and a pig was in there. The politician on the other hand volunteered to sleep in the barn, but instead of the politician complaining like the Indian or Jew, the animals (pig and cow) were actually the ones that raised a complaint against the politician and said\u00a0that the politician should be sent away because he promised to create a more conducive environment, including installing the barn with an air-conditioner.<\/p>\n

The Vice-Chancellor of OAU, Prof. Bamitale Omole<\/strong>, also commended Pastor Adeboye for his annual visit to the university, saying the initiative has had positive impacts on this great educational institution\u00a0and said: \u201cWe appreciate the love of Pastor Adeboye. With God and his presence last year, we had no calamities and also emerged as the best university in Nigeria. I urge students to be prayerful and cautious of what they do as God will continue to protect us.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
