General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has called for the release of TikToker Olumide Ogunsanwo, widely known as SeaKing.
Pastor Adeboye made the call at the church’s February Holy Ghost service held at 3km by 3km auditorium, Simawa, Ogun State.
Urging the congregation at the monthly spiritual meeting to take cognisance of the year’s prophecies, he reminded them that God said mockers of the divine would grow louder and more aggressive this year.
He added that SeaKing was only fulfilling part of the prophecies.
The revered cleric, however, said he was surprised at the social media personality’s arrest, asking the police to release him.
In his words: “God told us at the beginning of this year that mockers will be more active, they would become bolder, even hot.
“I heard that there was someone who lambasted me thoroughly because I asked my people to fast and pray for 100 days. I did not ask him to fast. I was only talking to my children.
“I was told that some people are so angry and they went and arrested him. Release him! He is fulfilling prophecy,” Adeboye said.
SeaKing’s arrest is linked to allegations of cyberbullying against Adeboye following remarks made during a live session in December 2024.
Previous Arrest and Charges
Pastor Adeboye warns Nigerians against fire disasters
SeaKing was arrested in December 2024 after posting a video in which he criticised President Bola Tinubu, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun. He was arraigned on charges of treason, cyberstalking and conduct likely to incite public disorder.
The magistrate’s court later granted him bail of ₦500,000 with a requirement for two sureties in the same sum.
Adeboye Stressed Caution Against Fire Outbreak
“Take attention to this year’s prophecies. When you look at the prophecy at the international scene and I remember telling you that part of Nigeria is embedded in the international scene. The first part was that we should pray against fire outbreak, storms and floods. When you talk about fire outbreak, we can see what happened in America with all the equipment and their experience by the time they think the fire has been put out, it started again. We must pray.
“In Nigeria, we have seen many incidences of fire outbreak, tanker, accidents, schools burnt, we must pray. You hear of flooding in northern Australia. When you see all these things happening and we are just entering February, I can tell you please pray.
“I believe that those of you who called me daddy should pay more attention when I tell you ‘God said’…pay attention to God’s word.
“I want to warn each and every one of us, please don’t joke with fire this year. If you find a naked fire burning around your vicinity quickly put it out,” he said.
