The General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has predicted the possibility of the Naira bouncing back and this time stronger than the United States dollar.
Adeboye gave this prediction during the church’s monthly thanksgiving service on Sunday, with the September theme; ‘Uncommon Miracles.’
The clergyman recalled how he experienced uncommon financial miracles in his early days as the leader of the church.
According to the revered Clergy, there was a period when Naira, competed favourably with United States dollars.
He said, “The days when Naira will be stronger will come back; those glorious days will return when that happens you will know.”
Realizing a reluctant response of “Amen” from the congregation, the clergyman quickly added, “Oh! I know you don’t believe me. If the Lord I serve is still on the throne, those glorious days will return.”
“Maybe when that happens, you will know that there is a God of miracles,” he said.
The naira, which currently exchanges between N915 and N918 to a dollar in the black market, has in recent times struggled to keep pace with the dollar and other foreign currency, with many predicting that it will reach N1,000 to a dollar soon.
The challenge the naira is facing has affected businesses and the cost of living, especially after the removal of fuel subsidy by the Federal Government.
