In a significant address during the November Holy Ghost Service, renowned cleric Pastor E.A Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God offered crucial advice to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu regarding Nigeria's pressing security challenges.
Strategic Security Recommendations
The respected spiritual leader emphasized the need for immediate and strategic action from the federal government. Pastor Adeboye proposed that if he were to offer suggestions, he would recommend the Nigerian government pursue diplomatic channels with the United States government.
Specifically, he advised that President Tinubu should diplomatically appeal to the American President to delay certain unspecified actions for approximately 100 days. This timeframe, according to the clergyman, would provide Nigeria with a crucial window to address its internal security concerns.
Ultimatum for Security Chiefs
Within this proposed 100-day period, Pastor Adeboye outlined a clear action plan for Nigeria's security apparatus. He strongly recommended that security chiefs be given a definitive mandate with serious consequences for failure.
The prominent religious figure suggested that security heads should receive explicit instructions to completely eliminate terrorism within 90 days or face resignation from their positions. This bold recommendation comes amid ongoing security challenges across various regions of Nigeria.
Context and Timing
The advice was delivered during the November Holy Ghost Service, an monthly event that attracts thousands of worshippers. The service, which took place in November 2025, provided the platform for the respected pastor to share his perspective on national issues.
The message has gained significant attention through social media platforms, particularly on Linda Ikeji's blog where the video was shared on November 8, 2025. This development occurs as Nigeria continues to grapple with various security threats affecting multiple regions of the country.
Pastor Adeboye's intervention highlights the growing concern among influential community leaders about the security situation and their willingness to offer concrete solutions to the government.
