The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, apparently worried by the current situations in Nigeria, declared a 30-day fasting and prayer across the country.

Pastor J.O. Odesola, Assistant General Overseer in charge of Administration and Personnel, in a statement on Tuesday said the action is to pray against crises and chaos in the country.

The cleric said that the prayer will start from November 1 to November 30 from midnight to 6.00 p.m. daily while the marathon fasting is to hold from November 1 to November 14. Adeboye directed that its members and Nigerians join the fasting and prayer, urging them to come together for prayers.

He, however, urged his members to adhere to all COVID-19 government regulations and safety precautions, social distancing, use of nose mask, provision of hand sanitizers or wash hand basin are put in place.

The country has in the past weeks been embroiled in a series of crises which started with the protest against police brutality.
