PFN Denies RCCG, Pastor Adeboye Link to National Prayer Drive

PFN Denies RCCG, Pastor Adeboye Link to National Prayer Drive — 1 of 2
1 / 2

The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) says the recent three-day national fasting and prayer initiative was its own programme, not an RCCG or Pastor E.A. Adeboye project. PFN’s National Secretary, Bishop David Bakare, explained that the National Executive Council conceived, approved, coordinated, and executed the event. He stressed that RCCG and other churches simply complied as members of the Pentecostal community. Bishop Bakare noted that PFN suspended proposed public processions due to security concerns and held state-level gatherings on Pentecost Sunday instead. He condemned false claims linking the programme to RCCG and urged the public to verify facts before sharing allegations. Reaffirming its commitment to national prayer and advocacy, PFN under Bishop Francis Wale Oke says it will continue praying for Nigeria, promoting peace, and calling on authorities to address socio-economic challenges.

What might have motivated PFN to clarify this separation from RCCG and Pastor Adeboye now?

But why would PFN feel the need to stress this separation only now, after all this time?

The PFN insists it conceived the prayer drive independently, but traditional associations with RCCG seem hard to dismiss.

I'm not convinced a simple statement erases years of Pastor Adeboye's influence in national prayer initiatives.

Rather than debating credit claims, perhaps focus on participating in the next fasting and prayer days under any approved body.
