Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) has told President Muhammadu Buhari to do more to secure Nigerians, saying the country has been polarised along ethnic, religious lines.
The PFN spoke in an Easter message on the heels of worsening insecurity in the country that has, recent, seen several cases of kidnappings and banditry, including the abduction of eight members of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), a member of the Fellowship.
In the message signed by the PFN President, Bishop Wale Oke, National Deputy President, Archbishop John Praise Daniel, National Secretary, Dr. Cosmas Ilechukwu, and National Publicity Secretary, Bishop Emma Gospel Isong, the Fellowship urged Buhari to live up to his promise to guarantee the security of all Nigerians irrespective of ethnicity or faith.

The Shepherd Superintendent of the Household of God Church, Rev. Chris Okotie, has said the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria “has become a clannish religious enterprise.”
Okotie said this in reaction to the election of the new national executive of the PFN, led by the newly elected President, Bishop Wale Oke.
He lamented that the Christian body has departed from its core values and is now a shadow of itself.
The clergyman said this in a terse message to the PFN National Secretariat in Lagos through his media adviser, Ladi Ayodeji.
Okotie said, “PFN has become a clannish religious enterprise. It is akin to an amorphous political entity with a Christian silhouette.
