Wife of the General Overseer, Redeemed Christian Church of God RCCG, Pastor Mrs. Folu Adeboye has said about 70 percent of Nigerians are suffering from hardships.

But she was optimistic that the country would soon experience genuine turnaround.
Mrs. Adeboye spoke at the closing of the 12th Abuja Special Holy Ghost Service held along Abuja – Keffi Expressway, Nasarawa State.
“Nigeria is shining outside. It is known to be flamboyant but 70 percent of the people in the nation are suffering. All forms of sickness we have never heard before are happening.
“What an evil is happening in this nation, greed, fornication, shedding of innocent blood, idolatory. Tonight we should be sober.”
Speaking on the theme of the service, Who can be against us, If the lord be for us, she referred to 2nd chronicle 15 assuring the congregation of God’s mercy.

In a special prayer session for the country, she urged the congregation to cry for mercy from sin and for God to cleanse the nation.
