Adeboye’s church report of Lagos-Ibadan Way embarrasses Ogun government

The Ogun State Government has denied that the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) founded by Pastor Enoch Adeboye was carrying out some repairs on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

Punch had reported that some workers employed by the church were seen filling some potholes on the road.

RCCG, it was learnt, was worried that the bad portions of the road may worsen gridlock during its forthcoming congress, which attracts hundreds of thousands.
