Enoch Adeboye, the general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God worldwide (RCCG), said that the only way out of all the problems plaguing the nation was for leaders in the country as well as every Nigerian to fully embrace Jesus Christ.

“Jesus Christ, as the Way, the Truth and the Life does not only have the capability to lead out of problems, sicknesses and bondage, He also has the power to lead into joy and freedom as well as paving the way forward,” Adeboye said, while speaking as the guest minister at the dedication.

When we love one another, we would do justice in any position we find ourselves,” Ayokunle stated.
