The Catholic Church has expressed support for Pastor Enoch Adeboye, leader of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, following his recent apology over previous teachings on tithing.

Adeboye, in a notable shift, recanted his earlier claim that paying tithes was essential for entering heaven.

Instead, he clarified that salvation and access to heaven are based on holiness and living in peace with others, rather than financial contributions.

Rev. Fr. Anthony Godonu, Director of Social Communications for the Lagos Catholic Archdiocese, commended Adeboye’s decision to correct his stance.

According to Godonu, the apology was the right course of action, as it aligned with the broader Christian teachings of focusing on spiritual purity and righteousness.

Reflecting on Adeboye’s revised message, Godonu highlighted that the earlier belief about tithing was inconsistent with Catholic doctrine.

He stated, Pastor Adeboye’s decision to recant his message from three years ago, where he suggested that those who do not pay tithes cannot enter heaven, is a positive step.

It shows that he has embraced the light and truth, as John 8:32 reminds us that knowing the truth sets one free.

Godonu emphasized that the Catholic Church has always taught that money is not a determinant for salvation or eternal life.

Instead, the focus is on doing the will of God, following Jesus Christ, and accepting life’s challenges with gratitude.

In the Catholic faith, believers are encouraged to carry their cross daily, recognizing that spiritual growth comes through thanksgiving and praise.

Godonu also expressed admiration for Adeboye, noting that his willingness to publicly correct himself at this stage of his life demonstrates his sincerity and commitment to truth.

He remarked that by acknowledging this, Adeboye is setting a powerful example for others, especially those in leadership, to remain humble and truthful.

The Catholic Church, Godonu said, congratulates Adeboye for embracing the truth and hopes that this moment will inspire more people to focus on the core values of faith, humility, and spiritual devotion.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has made it clear that his government will not tolerate any form of assault on officers of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA). Speaking through his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, at the Second Lagos Traffic Conference on Tuesday, the governor said anyone caught attacking traffic officers will be made to face the law.

The event, held in honour of LASTMA’s 25th anniversary, brought together key stakeholders to reflect on traffic challenges and explore new solutions under the theme: “Enhancing Traffic Efficiency and Safety on Lagos Roads: Challenges, Opportunities, and Innovations.”

Sanwo-Olu praised the efforts of LASTMA officers who he said work in tough, often dangerous conditions to keep Lagos roads under control. He acknowledged their sacrifices and dedication, saying their presence is the thin yellow line between traffic order and chaos.

“I truly commend every LASTMA officer for your courage and commitment. You’ve stayed strong even when the job puts you at risk, and that speaks volumes about your dedication,” he said. He also paid respects to officers who died in the line of duty, calling them heroes whose sacrifices would always be remembered.

Looking ahead, Sanwo-Olu shared plans to modernize LASTMA with technology that fits today’s traffic demands. He said the government would increase investment in smart systems such as AI-powered tools, automatic number plate recognition, and drone surveillance. These tools, he explained, will make it easier to monitor traffic in real time, respond quickly to incidents, and improve the overall movement of vehicles across Lagos.
