Nigerians have taken to social media to react to a prayer led by the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, on Saturday.

Adeboye addressed accusations that he interacts with evil force in order to accomplish miracles during the 71st annual conference of the church, which is now taking place at the Redemption Camp.

The prayer has continued to generate various reactions from Nigerians, majority of whom expressed their surprise over the manner of prayer led by the cleric.
