The Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has created a directorate for politics and governance across the country.
This was contained in a memo dated February 28.
It was gathered that the move was aimed at mobilizing support for members who are aspiring to occupy political offices
Political analysts believe that the development was aimed at supporting the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo who was a top pastor in the church prior to his emergence as VP in 2015.
The memo, which was issued by the Assistant General Overseer (Admin and Personnel) of the RCCG, Pastor J. F. Odesola, was directed to pastors in charge of regions and provinces of the RCCG across Nigeria.
The memo reads in part, “The essence of this directorate is to help coordinate the engagement of our people who are willing to be involved in politics, as well as mobilize support for them when required”.
Although Osinbajo, is yet to declare interest for the presidential race, however, his team has been moving around the country for consultations.
