The General Overseer of House On The Rock Church worldwide, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, has released a powerful statement on the position of the Church of God in the ongoing protests against police brutality in the country.
According to the clergy man, the “perfect will of God” is the only remedy to the travesty in Nigeria.
Adefarasin while demanding that the widespread outcry against the Nigeria police over alleged bullying, extortion and sheer brutality by rogue element of law enforcement not be ignored, also condoled with the bereaved and aggrieved who have suffered losses “amidst the incursion of the unscrupulous dissidents into our justice system.”
He however, admitted that there were still upstanding patriotic and incorruptible men and women in the Nigeria police force, even as he called for reorientation of the force men.
Pastor Adefarasin said, “While the cause of the protests is disheartening, the resounding call of our young people for equitable rule of law, is one that is echoed globally, and is welcome here at home because it shows that Nigerian youth have now found their unified voice and are using it to seek positive change in our polity. May I suggest that our young people organise and select representatives who are able to articulate their concerns effectively and engage the government in productive dialogue.
“In the meantime, we will not cease to pray for our nation Nigeria and declare that God’s perfect will be done in our land. We speak healing, redemption and restoration to our nation and all her people, declaring that by the inimitable power of the Almighty God, there will be wisdom and righteousness in the halls of our government and in the corridors of power; that there will be justice and equity in our streets, safety and security across our land; and peace and prosperity in our country with grace in our hearts for the repairing of the brotherhood of all Nigerians.
“This we earnestly pray in Jesus name.
