The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has disclosed what he said God revealed to him following the abduction of pupils and teachers in Oyo State.
The victims were kidnapped on May 15 when gunmen attacked Community High School, Ahoro-Esiele, Primary School, Esiele, and Yawota Baptist Nursery and Primary School, all located in Oriire Local Government Area of the state.
The attack reportedly involved the abduction of about 32 people. One of the victims, a mathematics teacher identified as Michael Oyedokun, was later beheaded by the kidnappers while in captivity.
Speaking in a viral video recorded during the US-Nigeria Faith Heroes Award Gala organised by the Save Nigeria Group in Washington, D.C., Adeboye said he immediately sought God’s direction after learning about the incident.
He said, “I was compelled to cry unto God because we have been fasting and praying for a particular group of school children who were captured. The kidnappers felt that the government was not reacting fast enough to give them the money they asked for, and they slaughtered their teacher and showed the video to the rest of the world.
Some people then began to speak, challenging those of us who said we had been praying. They said, ‘You are fasting, you are praying, where is your God?’ So I went to the Lord in prayer, in deep agony. I said, ‘Father, you have heard them. They said, ‘Where is our God?’ And then God spoke to me. He told me that the release of the children is going to be dramatic.”
Furthermore, the cleric stated that God promised to respond to him regarding the plan for the release of the kidnapped pupils and teachers.

He also disclosed that God spoke to him about several other matters concerning the nation.
“He (God) did not tell me the time or the details. He then told me to leave that aspect in his hands and said he would talk to me about what would happen after this particular incident.
“Some of the things he said, he mentioned what would happen to those who have been sponsoring terrorism and kidnapping in Nigeria. He also spoke about several other things. I had no idea what was going to happen here,” Pastor Adeboye added.
