Oyogist has learned that Leke Adeboye, the Senior Personal Assistant of the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has apologised for calling RCCG pastors ‘goats’.
Recall that in a previous post, Leke had called Erring pastors “Goat”, which had sparked mixed reactions online.
He Apologized via a statement on Thursday.
The statement, which was titled, ‘My sincere apology’, was released on his Instagram page.
Leke said though his comment was extreme, his intention was not to malign or insult the church.
‘I wish to use this medium to tender my unreserved apologies on the statement made from my social media handle about some of our esteemed Pastors,” he said.
He, however, accepted a disciplinary action taken against him in good faith, while pleading for forgiveness.
He said, “The disciplinary measures taken by the mission are well received and this period will be used to reflect and introspect.
“I wish to crave your indulgence to please forgive my extreme statement which I wish to emphasise was absolutely not intended to insult or malign.
“I also wish to apologise profusely to the entire leadership and Pastors of our beloved Church who might have been hurt by this statement.
“I remain humbly yours in God’s love and mercies.”
