Common Sense: Adeboye bids Nigerians to Stay at Home for the Love of Self against Coronavirus

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has exhorted Nigerians to comply with the lockdown request of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), as a major aspect of measures to check the spread of the coronavirus pandemic in the nation.

The PUNCH reports that the Federal Capital Territory Abuja just as Lagos and Ogun States have been on lockdown since 11pm, March 30, after the President's mandate that occupants of the state, barring basic specialist organizations, remain at home and watch social separating.

Thusly, a few governors of the 28 states influenced by the pandemic have additionally requested lockdowns in their domains.

The 78-year-old pastor during a lesson communicated online on Sunday asked occupants in the nation to remain at home and not jeopardize their lives.


He offered the guidance while lecturing on a theme labeled 'Force' with writings taken from Acts 1:4-8.

He stated, "There are classes of intensity. There is political force. Ecclesiastes 8:4 says where the expression of a lord is, there is power. You put it in the cutting edge language, where the expression of the President is, there is power.

"On the off chance that you don't accept that, simply check what's going on now. The President sits in his home and makes a declaration or proclamation, everyone remain at home, and in the event that you love yourself, remain at home."


As indicated by the Nigeria Center for Disease Control as of Saturday night, more than 1000 instances of the novel infection have been accounted for in the nation including more than 30 fatalities or more 200 recuperations
