Q: The good book mention that God cannot do a thing without telling his prophets. What is the mind of God regarding plans for Nigeria?
A: Thank you so much for this question, I am fully persuaded that the mind of God concerning Nigeria is of Good and of peace. All that God created is for Good including Nigeria, The Mind of God for Nigeria is to make Nigeria the Envy of other nations, though things are tough right now, things will get better.
Q: Going by the present inflationary circumstances the masses are going through in Nigeria, as a prophet, what is the agenda of God for Nigeria?
A: The Agenda of God for Nigeria remains to bring glory out of the present circumstances of the nation.. Romans 8:18 “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us” Things will get better in Nigeria, however we just need to be Patient, Prayerful and Persistent. Put in more effort into human capacity and leadership development.
Q: Why do you think men of God, Christian Association of Nigeria are not telling the minds of God on Boko Haram attack, Fulani Herdsmen genocide and tough economic situation in the nation?
A: I won’t say men of God or the Christian Association of Nigeria are not telling the mind of God, probably you can say they are not aggressive about it. I would say disunity, pursuit of personal kingdom as well as empire in some men of God or ministries could have affected these but I know some that are consistently and passionately declaring the agenda of God over the nation.
Q: The good book also says ‘My people perish for lack of knowledge’, why do you think some Christians in South East, South South were killed, their underage girls raped by Fulani Herdsmen?
A: I personally believe all these are the program of the devil to frustrate and persecute Christians. it’s so pathetic that innocents souls are mainly the victims of these evil operations but certainly God surely will avenge the innocent blood. All through Bible Christians have always been persecuted and facing evil attacks but at the end God always arise.
Q: As a man of God, what dangers do you think is looming in Nigeria’s polity?
A: I must confess all I see concerning Nigeria is the manifestation of good, however, the adversaries of Nigeria shall be fully exposed and those behind the retardation of the country shall be humiliated. Though more evil operations are in the pipeline but all shall be exposed and subdued.
Q: Will there be enough food supply, good economy and better life for the masses in Nigeria or their will be tragedy on the nation?
A: Surely things are going to get better, every nation at one point or the other has passed through hard times. In the word of Robert Schuller, tough times don’t last but tough people do. There shall be economical advancement in the country. Sometimes, tough situations stirs up creativity in people, I see more creative solutions emanating and economical growth as we saw in nations like Singapore, china and others through entrepreneurial advancement will manifest in the country. Every great product is a function of a deep process… Nigeria is going through a process NOW .. and I know THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER…
Q: What are your prophetic declaration for Nigeria at this time?
A: For the masses, Nigeria is a blessed country, fully loaded with resources for greatness, the glory of Nigeria shall rise, the tide is turning around in Nigeria, light is taking over from darkness, the evil cloud over Nigeria is clearing off, scarcity is giving way for surplus, the agenda of God for the nation shall be fully manifest, violence shall no longer be heard in Nigeria, peace shall reign over Nigeria, No more disaster, no more terrorist attacks against Nigeria, It shall surely be said of Nigeria when the Lord restored again the captivity of Nigeria, we were like them that dreams in Jesus name.
