Adeboye noted that the outreach was a way of encouraging the people not to lose hope, noting that the church has been calling on God to come to the country's aid, Daily Trust report added.

He said:

"It is not as if people in authority are not trying their best. They are doing as much as humanly possible and then we found out that when you have problems that are beyond human ability to solve them, you call on the Almighty."

This came days after the youths in Osun state staged a peaceful protest in Osogbo, the Osun state capital, expressing their frustration over the harsh economy, and noting they do not support "renewed hardship".

The RCCG leader urged Nigerians to pray and cry to God to show mercy on the country.
