– Leke Adeboye Apologizes To RCCG Pastors Over “Goat” Comment
The son of Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, General overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Leke Adeboye has apologized to RCCG pastors over a post he made on his social media page were he made rude comments about the church pastors.
In a post via his Instagram account that has now been deleted, he had slammed RCCG pastors who went ahead to preach after his father’s close-out sermon on Thanksgiving Sundays, as all parishes of the church weren’t supposed to entertain any sermon on first Sundays after the G.O’s sermon was broadcasted live.
“Why would you preach another sermon after Daddy GO has just finished preaching. You’re not a son. You’re a goat, sir. Next thanksgiving service, just do altar call, then thanksgiving,” he posted.
It has now been gathered that the church leaders wasted no time in taking disciplinary action after it generated an outrage.
In a statement released on his Instagram account on Thursday, Leke Adeboye apologizes saying he would take the disciplinary measures given him by the church as a period of reflection and introspection.
He wrote, “I wish to use this medium to tender my unreserved apologies on the statement made from my social media handle about some of our esteemed Pastors.
“The disciplinary measures taken by the mission is well received and this period will be used to reflect and introspect.
“I wish to crave your indulgence to please forgive my extreme statement which I wish to emphasise was absolutely not intended to insult or malign.
“I also wish to apologise profusely to the entire leadership and pastors of our beloved church who might have been hurt by this statement. I remain humbly yours in God’s love and mercies. Yours in His service.”
