The General Overseer of the RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, is facing criticism for recounting a purported miracle in which he claimed that God altered the weather for him during a visit to America.
Pastor Adeboye detailed the incident to his congregation, explaining that he was invited to a program in Colorado, America, during winter, a season he strongly dislikes. To avoid the cold, he prayed for God to suspend winter for the duration of his stay.
According to the pastor, despite it being January with expected peak cold, God transformed the weather to summer exclusively for him. He asserted that citizens were even seen wearing T-shirts during what was supposed to be winter.

However, this account has sparked skepticism among many internet users, with some branding it false and accusing the religious leader of deceiving his followers.
See some reactions:
@Inno4Chi expressed doubt: “I believe this is possible. This is why he should have also suspended the rise of the dollar against the Naira. It should be 1 = 1. The latter is more important than the rubbish winter story.”
@_Kamor mocked the belief: “Not some of yall remotely trying to believe this because “Moses did it”. LMFAO. Say he no like cold na why. 😂😂😂. He like as Naija dey? Make he beg that his Father for us.”
@LupinIkenga criticized: “Like I said, it baffles me that people still believe this man and follow him. This man is clearly a fake man of God but yet a lot of you don’t wanna admit this”
@oyin_debby supported the pastor: “There’s a reason why it’s called a Miracle. It’s not supposed to make sense to everybody”
@Xperience_Snr questioned the narrative: “Lmao!!! Which kin lie be this? Dey push away the winter ❄ and brought in summer.. 🏖️ 😭🤣 all the snow that has been hanging in the air began to fall.!! 🤣”
