Adeboye, Oyedepo seek stronger US support against terrorism

The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, and the Presiding Bishop of Winners’ Chapel, David Oyedepo, have called for stronger United States support in tackling terrorism in Nigeria, warning that the country is nearing a breaking point due to persistent insecurity.

They stated this at the 2026 Faith Defender Award Gala at the Hilton Garden Inn on Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C., on June 23, according to a press release signed by the President of Save Nigeria Group USA, Stephen Osemwegie.

Adeboye urged the United States and its allies to intensify support for Nigeria in its fight against insecurity, and he made a direct appeal for more international support.

“Thank God for Trump. He means business,” he added, commending U.S. President Donald Trump’s stance against terrorism, although he noted he did not agree with all of his positions.

In a keynote address delivered on his behalf, Oyedepo painted a grim picture of the situation in Nigeria, describing the country as being “virtually at the brink of collapse” due to unrelenting terrorist attacks and violence.
