Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning. UNHCR is preparing for at least 10,000 new arrivals but warned that capacity is rapidly diminishing. Markazi refugee village, designed for 5,000 people, was already hosting more than 2,700 Yemenis and 1,500 Eritreans. More than 100,000 people have also been displaced ins...

PFN Rejects Claims Linking Nationwide Prayer Programme to RCCG, Pastor Adeboye

 

The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) has dismissed as “false, misleading, and entirely baseless” allegations that its recent nationwide prayer programme was organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) or its General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.


In a statement issued by its National Secretary, Bishop David Bakare, the PFN clarified that the initiative was conceived, directed, and executed solely under its own authority.


“It is deeply unfortunate for anyone to attempt to attribute the programme to Pastor E.A. Adeboye or the Redeemed Christian Church of God,” Bakare said. “The RCCG never called for any protest. The programme was entirely a PFN initiative.”


The fellowship emphasised that all directives, instructions, and operational decisions originated from its leadership, with participating churches, including RCCG, simply complying as responsible members of the Pentecostal community.


Bakare noted that the final day of the programme coincided with Pentecost Sunday, a Christian event observed globally across denominations and nations, and not peculiar to any single church or country.


He revealed that an earlier proposal for public processions and placards was suspended due to security considerations. The fellowship expressed satisfaction with the outcome of the exercise, describing it as successful in mobilising prayers for the nation.


“We are grateful to God that the programme was successful and widely embraced,” Bakare stated. “If there are individuals who believe alternative approaches should have been adopted, they are free to organise lawful initiatives of their own rather than spreading unfounded allegations and misinformation.”


The PFN urged Christians and Nigerians to reject misinformation and instead promote unity, peace, and national progress.


The three-day nationwide fasting and prayer programme was announced in May in response to worsening insecurity, bloodshed, economic hardship, and concerns over the country’s political future ahead of the 2027 elections.


In a related remark, the Chairman of the Kwara State chapter of the PFN, Rev. O.T. Opatola, appealed to political leaders across the country to prioritise ending killings, banditry, and terrorism over electoral ambitions.
