Adeboye Urges Nigerians to Pray and Stay Vigilant Against Fire Outbreaks
Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has issued a strong warning to Nigerians about the rising threat of fire outbreaks across the country.
During his sermon at the church’s February Thanksgiving service held at the Throne of Grace Parish in Ebute-Metta, Lagos, Adeboye urged citizens to remain vigilant and prayerful in the face of potential natural disasters, including storms and floods.
In particular, Adeboye warned farmers preparing their lands for the planting season to be extra cautious about bush burning. He stressed the importance of avoiding any form of open flame around farmlands.
“Do not ignore the dangers of fire,” Adeboye cautioned. “Farmers, please do not burn bushes while preparing your farms. I am telling you this for your own good.”
He concluded by praying for God’s protection over the nation, asking for divine intervention to prevent disasters and grant peace and safety to all.
