The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has distanced himself from the arrest of popular TikToker SeaKing, who was reportedly detained over comments about him. Adeboye stated that he had no hand in the matter and called for the content creator’s immediate release.
In a statement issued by his media team, Adeboye emphasized that he does not encourage the suppression of free speech, even when people criticize him. He noted that he had never instructed law enforcement to go after his critics and urged authorities to handle the situation with fairness.
SeaKing, known for his controversial takes on religious figures, was reportedly arrested after making comments about the revered pastor. His detention sparked public outcry, with many accusing influential religious leaders of using their power to silence critics. However, Adeboye’s statement suggests he was not involved in any such action.
The pastor further stressed that he bears no grudge against the TikToker and believes in forgiveness and compassion, values that he preaches. He advised the public to avoid false narratives and allow justice to take its course without interference.
As the controversy unfolds, calls for SeaKing’s release continue to grow, with activists and social media users urging the authorities to respect freedom of expression. Meanwhile, Adeboye’s clarification seeks to dispel speculations about his role in the incident.
