The Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming Of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa, on Monday, begged the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye to tell Nigerians whether or not President Muhammadu Buhari is alive or dead.
The cleric also urged the service chiefs to cover their faces in shame over the abduction of more than 300 schoolboys in Kankara, Kastina State.
In a statement on Monday, Giwa, in his reaction to the ugly development begged “Pastor Adeboye and those who supported the APC to win the 2015 election to tell Nigerians whether or not President Muhammadu Buhari is alive or dead.”
Recall that more than 300 schoolboys are still missing after gunmen attacked a secondary school in Kankara, a town in Nigeria’s northwestern Katsina state, authorities said.
Attackers on motorcycles stormed the all-boys Government Science School late on Friday and engaged security forces in a fierce gun battle, forcing hundreds of students to flee and hide in the surrounding forest.
There have been conflicting figures on the actual numbers of the abducted schoolboys in Kankara Katsina state.
Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, had disagreed with Governor Bello Masari over the number of boys abducted from Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, Katsina State.
He said the number of the schoolboys still in captivity based on the testimony of one of the boys who escaped are ten, not 333 as earlier reported by the governor.
Masari, on Sunday, while briefing a Federal Government delegation led by Minister of Defence, Maj Gen Bashir Magashi (retd.), had said, “The children so far kidnapped cut across the state because of the boarding school houses all children from all parts of the state and some even from outside the state.
“It has a population of 839, and so far, we are yet to account for 333 students. We are still counting because more are coming out from the forest and we are calling those parents that have phone numbers to find out whether or not their children have gone back home.”
However, Pastor Giwa wondered why “the nation would have a president who could not lay his life for his citizens by protecting them.”
The cleric added, “By now, nobody should have advised the service chiefs to resign before they do so.”
