The Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Nigeria, AMEN, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has warned the federal government of Nigeria against the looming danger that may erupt as a result of hardship and suffering meted out to Nigerians due to the removal of fuel subsidy....READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE ▶▶
The fiery priest urged the Federal Government to return the fuel subsidy since the removal has caused hardship to the people, adding that nobody can stop the looming protest when it starts.
Mbaka, who made this call on Sunday during a homely titled “Miracle of Open Doors,” warned that the subsidy removal should not mean enriching the governors with billions every month and suffering the poor masses.
He warned those hijacking the economy of Nigeria and causing suffering on the people to beware of the anger of God, saying, “Hammer of God is coming to unlock the key of evil one; no padlock is difficult for hammer of God to shatter it.”
He urged President Bola Ahmed to hire experts to help the federal government provide solutions to the economic quagmire to ameliorate the suffering and hardship in the country.
He warned that all hands must be on deck to avert the looming danger that would befall all the leaders, irrespective of political party or political position, saying, “Once the power of God that’s prophetic begins to roll away from the sanctuary, the government will begin to suffer.”
“Look at what is happening in the country with buoyant riches of liquid and solid minerals and the best ecological weather in the whole world. The demographic structure of the country is wonderful, and the quality of children is excellence.
“A country blessed with children of orbit and excellence. Interns of education Nigerian children are among the best out; oil is the best in the world. Our trees are wonderful, and our land is fertile for any type of crop, but look at us importing garri, rice, pencil, matches, soap, toothpaste, and our own crude oil.
“If you go to the filing station, the tank you used to fill with N10k, you can’t fill it with N50k again, and how much will be the salaries of our civil servants by the time they go to school and come back for two weeks with their salary not finished? This problem started with the past government, but I believe the present government can do something.
“We cannot continue like this. Shall we continue like this? never we can not. I am not blaming anybody but I am thinking that If they cannot provide a solution, you look for those who can provide solution. I am not blaming the present government but I am noticing that there are many square pegs in round holes, people who do not know how to solve problems. Somebody who doesn’t know how to solve math, you ask him to be a mathematics teacher, you can’t give what you don’t have.
“Nigeria is ganged up. Nigeria is locked up; Nigeria is in a siege; Nigeria is caged, Nigeria is passing through a casket experience. We need to be unlocked. Our youths are running away, and when you run to another country without quality paper, you are there worst than what it ought to be here. Many are languishing having gone out, but despite what they are suffering there, it is better for them than when they are here.
“Why can’t there be steady power supply, why can’t the interest for producers and industrialists from the banks be lowered, how can somebody effectively take a loan from the bank and be paying 40℅? It’s an indirect way of increasing criminality. It’s a subtle way of perpetrating anachronisms of kidnapping and insecurity. It’s a matter of who can say it.
“I am not talking about protest, but I mean that the present government should sit up or sit down and plan on what to do to ameliorate the suffering of the poor masses. Mortuaries are being filled with people who died out of hopelessness. It’s even effecting the spirituality and morality of our people. People cannot eat. Imagine a parent with six children. How many cups of garri will they eat in a day?
“Some can’t even go to the hospital; if you go to the hospital and drugs are prescribed, how will you eat because it’s after meal that you take drugs. Can you even pay for the hospital bill? Every week the problem is multiplying, our case is becoming amoebic like amoebae, shapeless.
“Look at the wonderful communiqué the bishops wrote; we have read them in the church; how will that be promulgated? I know that all in the Aso Rock, there are two major groups, Christians and Muslims, who are handling the Bible and the Quran. Either you’re reading the Bible or you’re reading the Quran, can’t you, because of Jesus or Muhammad, make this country a home worthy of existence.
“Why have you forgotten your spiritual origin? Shall we continue like this until when, is it not time we uncage this country? And Jesus looked up to heaven and said, can’t we open the doors of industrialisation and technology? Look at what is happening in Burkina Faso, a small country like one state in Nigeria has gone up to the space to mount technological facilities to take care of the whole county. If you take any pin anywhere in Burkina Fasothen, that technological facility will locate you.
“The International Monetary Fund, IMF, has been asking them to come and borrow money, and they said no that they don’t need it. Nigeria is perpetually borrowing and borrowing. Some of you may be blaming the present government, not knowing that they have been caged. The money the last government burrowed. I don’t think the present government can finish paying it. Remember, when they give you the money, you use what you have as collateral.
“I don’t know how many years of oil they will carry before we begin to enjoy our own. What we are passing noe is hunger. Famine time is coming; I told you this many years ago. Don’t sit down in your house; open your door and enter the bush to farm, go out and do something; don’t wait for government to do things for you; otherwise, you’re looking for magic, but I am praying for miracle.
“Miracle and magic are not the same. Miracle is supernaturally organic. Magic is the fake. It could be a product of deception. Look at what the Bible says in the book of Isaiah 35: “We shall tell those who are saddened to fear not.” Despite what is happening in the country, I tell you to fear not but to be tied to those who are perpetuating this oversuffering and cronyism, thinking that nothing will happen. And say, do you know who I am? I am the minister, Senator, Honourable representing this and that, and I am the governor, President.
“I don’t care who you are. Who you are is six feet. In summary, one day all this wealth you have acquired will be somewhere, and you can’t lay your hands on any of them. Vanity upon vanity, rubbish.
“The leaders have the key to opening the doors of this suffering, and people will beg to enjoy the wealth of the land. It’s now a shameful thing to tell anybody that you’re from Nigeria because our youths are doing anything possible to survive. Man must survive. It’s an instinct, survival in massculus psychology; one of the basic facts is how I will survive. And a time when immortality will become a culture and tradition. That’s what is happening, and it will soon affect the church with the social media trend.
“The church leaders should prepare to give their faithful what to eat. The time for that is fast approaching because some of our church leaders are romancing unhealthy with the so-called politicians that you can’t look at their faces and tell them that what they’re doing is wrong.
“That the cost of oil in Nigeria is becoming something else we can’t imagine and somebody is telling us is because subsidy is removed, and that is why. If the removal of subsidy will bring hardship to us, let them put it back. If subsidy means that governors should be enriching themselves in billions every month and the poor masses are suffering and dying, let them put back the subsidy because the danger of it is coming.
“I have been silent on it, and once the power of God that prophetic begins to roll away from the sanctuary, the government will begin to suffer. We cannot continue like this. The doors must open. Look at, the doors to foreign countries open and the doors to enter Nigeria closed. How many Americans are coming to invest here, how many new companies are rising in Nigeria, even local investors are closing down.
“What you buy today, go back and price it tomorrow. Economic instability as a result of demonic inflation. The church has never had it this way in this country. The cars that have been climbing the hills have failed to break, and everybody should begin to call on his own God.
I believe there are gurus in this country that can come together and bring solutions irrespective of party they are in because when what will happen happens, nobody will tell anybody to protest or not to protest.
‘It will be a problem beyond party or whatever. Some of us who are not political are even constantly misunderstood; if I am saying the truth, they will misunderstand Mbaka. This is what I have been crying over the years—that a time is coming, and that time has come now. Mbaka, close your mouth! Mbaka, close your mouth!! It’s now happening.
“The question I am asking is: How will our parents feed their children morning, afternoon, and night, with what from what? We are not talking about school fees, house rent, or even the fuel, whatever, because we can trek to wherever we used to enter motor to. It’s a matter of leaving very early in the morning.
“We are going back to our roots; those who used to eat only indomie are now looking for wee to help them eat. Back to the root. Are you going to the village? Do you have any houses in the village? Is the farm safe? The cancer in Nigeria has become maligners and metastasize. We need the miracle of God to open the door of healing,” he said.
