A cross section of Nigerians has started to lash out at the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye over a tweet he posted on his handle.
The RCCG pastor took to his twitter handle to admonish about marriage and shared an anecdote in his tweet which generated lots of disparaging comments from twitter users.
In one of the tweets, the pastor said ” One of my sons once told me that he was always excited to resume in the office every Monday because he would get to see his secretary again. I told him to fire her immediately. Nothing and no one is worth your marriage”
The tweet has since generated lots of reactions with many criticising the pastor for such comments.
Below is the pastor’s tweet:

Pastor Adeboye is no different from all other pastors & religious leaders. They're all money grabbing opportunist. I still remember his "ten people comin out to give 1billion each" like its yesterday. How on Beyonce's on Earth can a legit business man make a billion Naira donatn?

I seriously want to believe this post wasn’t done at the behest of Pastor Adeboye because in civilized climes this really could be evidence 101 for the law suit the sacked lady would throw at them. Absolute rubbish https://t.co/fi6td9uGis

Before you start supporting Pastor Adeboye on this matter, REMEMBER this, that lady might be the bread winner of one family, sacking her for the inability of his son to hold himself is a selfish and wrong decision, with due respect Daddy GO F up on this!

The problem here is that my pastor adeboye can't be wrong. This is why we have so many "spiritual wicked" people in church. If you try such nonsense in saner clime the lady will sue and win heavy compensation. But here's Nigeria, you see and hear nonsense. ????♂️????♂️

Don't guilt trip him. She can decide to be a C.E.O, she can decide to work for someone else, is prostitution the only job available?
We don't agree with what Pastor Adeboye did but her life is in her hands

Really don't give a hoot about this Pastor Adeboye's matter, my only issue is with the ppl quoting Matt5:30.
Plz, It says your arm not your secretary's arm. If you really want to go by the literal Translation, then the man should cut off his genitals so they don't make him sin.

I'm not even surprised people are defending Pastor Adeboye.
It's the norm.
Nigerians will contort themselves into unbelievable positions b4 they'll admit any fault in their religious leaders.Let me catch u idiots tweeting about the oppression of the poor again on this app.
