Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and a former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, have reacted to the death of Pastor Dare Adeboye, the third child of its General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.
Naija News had earlier reported that the 42-year-old cleric died in his sleep on Wednesday in Eket, Akwa Ibom State, where he was based with his family.
In a tweet via his Twitter handle on Thursday, Atiku commiserated with the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, over the death of his son, Dare.
Atiku’s condolence message was contained in a post made on his Twitter handle, @Atiku.
The message read, “My thoughts and prayers are with the family of @PastorEAAdeboye in this trying time.
“I pray that God, in this trying time, will comfort and strengthen him and his family by God’s grace.”
Also reacting in a tweet via his Twitter handle, Saraki condoled with Pastor Adeboye and the RCCG community over the death of Dare Adeboye.
Saraki wrote: “My family and I send our heartfelt condolences and prayers to @PastorEAAdeboye, his family, and the entire @Rccghq community over the passing of Pastor Dare Adeboye.
“We pray that the Almighty grants you all the much-needed strength that you need as you mourn this significant loss.”
