Pastor Folu Adeboye, wife of the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E.A. Adeboye, has alleged that one of the church’s pastors absconded with $8,000, abandoned his wife, and remarried in the United States.
Pastor Folu made the revelation during her ministration at a men’s programme organised by the church.
A video of Pastor Adeboye’s wife recounting the incident has since gone viral.
According to her, the pastor, originally from Ekiti State, had been stationed in Cape Town, South Africa.
The $8,000 in question was intended for the acquisition of a permanent site for the parish.
Pastor Adeboye recounted the matter with concern for the pastor’s deserted wife: “The woman she abandoned in South Africa is presently in a terrible state now, almost running mad.”
She continued with a stern charge to the men of the church: “RCCG men, what are we going to do? Are we going to continue with such a lying spirit, a deceitful spirit to the God of the kingdom?”
