UPDATE: REDEEMED CANCELS 3-DAY CRUSADE OVER MUSICIANS' INVITATION



A 3-day outdoor crusade, organized by The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) , Province 20 and tagged ‘Lagos Island Family areas forum’ was expected to feature Pastor Keji Hamilton and billed for Friday, October 23 to Sunday, October 25, has been cancelled.   

The cancellation came after the criticism that followed the invitation of the Fuji musician Wasiu Alabi Pasuma and former band leader of the late Fela Anikulapo’s Egypt 80 band, Kereke Jike as a guest artist for the crusade.
Naij.com gathered that the decision to stop the programme was because the church headquarters felt the idea to bring Pasuma and his fans to the church ‘was not well conceived and…at the same time dragging the name of the church into the mud’.

 According to our source it was a fan of the Fuji lord who worked at the press where the posters and fliers were being printed who leaked the artwork of the posters and fliers of the event.

It is important to know that few months ago a church was criticized for inviting a secular singer, Mavin Records’ Korede Bello, to perform his hit single ‘Godwin’ during the Sunday service.
