I Consulted Pastor Adeboye Before Accepting To Be Buhari’s Running Mate - Osinbajo

APC’s Muhammadu Buhari's running mate,Yemi Osinbajo who also doubles as a pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church Of God, said he consulted the General Overseer of the church, Pastor E.A Adeboye, before embarking on this journey, Mr Osinbajo spoke to Kayode Falade...

The Redeemed Christian Church of God, where you are a pastor, has come out to say it never endorsed you…

I don’t think the church has ever said any such thing. Also, the church does not endorse candidates. The General Overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has not said any such thing. He has not issued any statement. In any event, the RCCG as a church cannot endorse a candidate. How can a church endorse a candidate?

But did you seek Pastor Adeboye’s consent before accepting the nomination?

I serve under the GO of the RCCG as a pastor. If I am going to take any kind of action, especially an action that involves public service, it is my duty to consult withhim. It would be absolutely irresponsible ofme not to consult with him. And I have consulted with him.

Did he give you his consent?

I have consulted with Adeboye fully. I am not prepared to share with you the details of our discussion. But be absolutely certain that I would not take these steps without properly consulting with him and that I did what was needful.

According to Ifa, an apetebi is the wife of Ifa, and not necessarily, the wife of a Babalawo or an ifa practitioner. A woman may be advised to have the symbol of Ifa on her person in order to solve a specific problem in life or to accelerate to the realization of certain goals for her while the husband may not be an Ifa practitioner at all.

Ẹ̀rìndínlógún in the old way of using it: Baba Odùdúwà: In ancient times, the "Cowrie Shell" was used whole. They didn’t took the belly out (the womb) as it done now in many places, when the full Cowrie was used (without opening the "belly"), the reading of the Oracle was something different, if the Cowrie Shell falls with the belly up, this means that it does not speak.
