Obidients Attack Pastor Adeboye Over Insecurity Remarks—A Sign of Political Intolerance?

Pastor Enoch Adeboye recently addressed Nigeria’s worsening insecurity. He urged the President to give clear directives to security agencies rather than personally don khaki and lead troops. He acknowledged that terrorism and kidnapping now affect both the North and the South. Instead of engaging his argument, many Obidients resorted to abuse. They accused him of tribal bias simply because he did not condemn President Tinubu in their preferred terms. This selective use of ethnicity stifles honest debate. Debate should focus on facts, not personal attacks or ancestry. Disagreement can be respectful and grounded in policy, ideology, or experience. If you disagree with Adeboye, challenge his points—not his background. When political movements silence alternative voices with insults, they alienate decent Nigerians. True democratic engagement corrects ideas with reasoned argument, not intolerance.
