Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu has revealed that Pastor Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God named him Abraham.

According to him, during his wife's ordination as a pastor at RCCG, Pastor Adeboye gave him the name Abraham and when he inquired the meaning he was told it meant 'Father of Nations'.

"Pastor Adeboye gave me Abraham. I said, ‘What’s the meaning?’, he said, ‘Watch out. The father of nations.’” Tinubu said.

The former Governor of Lagos state made this known during a meeting with Islamic groups and the Christian Association of Nigeria CAN, in Kano.

Instead he served as a father figure to the nation and God blessed him with every resource a man could have.
