Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God made a statement that shocked millions of Christians when he visited the family of Mrs. Eunice Olawale, wife of a Redeemed Church Pastor who was slaughtered while preaching the gospel in Kubwa, a satellite town in Abuja around 5.00am on Saturday 9^th July, 2016.

“Lord, we just want to say thank you. We pray that you will keep this family in your hand, and that you will be with them. We pray you will comfort and defend them. They too will finish well. We are praying that all the perpetrators of this crime will be found. We are not asking for justice, we are only praying that you will save their souls. It will be glorious if they can come and testify that ‘before we were murderers, but now, we are pastors.’

“As for these little children, give them wisdom; let them succeed and excel. As for the church, you will comfort us. As a result of what had happened, instead of decrease, increase your church. Stand by them and keep away evil from them.”
