Nigeria’ll Overcome Its Security Challenge -kumuyi by honey001(m): 2:23pm On Sep 19, 2014 |
The General Superintendent of the Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, has said Nigeria will overcome all its problems including insecurity challenge posed to it by the Boko Haram. Kumuyi said this at a press conference he addressed in Osogbo on Thursday night upon his arrival for the crusade of the church which started on Friday and to end on Monday morning. The cleric said the problems facing Nigeria were not peculiar ones, adding that with fervent prayers all the problems would be solved by God and with right attitude of the people of the country. Kumuyi said, “Many nations have problems similar to Nigeria’s but with prayers to God, all the problems would be solved. “The crusade we are holding is part of solution to the problems of the nation. We are going to pray for individuals and the nation. God is interested in this country and all our problems will be solved.” Kumuyi also advised Nigerians to vote wisely in the 2015 general election, saying Nigerians should vote for candidates they believe would take the nation and their states to where they were supposed to be. He said, “I can’t say that kind of leader is A, B or C but we should cast our votes intelligently. We know what the country should be and we should vote for a leader who would take us there. “Obviously, you don’t expect me to say you should vote for a particular party or anybody because I am not a politician. But I pray God will give us the wisdom to vote for the right persons to take us there.” The pastor, who was a mathematics lecturer at the University of Lagos before starting the church in 1973 appealed to Nigerians to repent from their sins and turn to God who he said had solutions to all problems confronting mankind. The overseer of the DLBC in Osun State, Pastor John Adeniran, had earlier said the military onslaught against the Boko Haram sect could not end the crisis except God intervenes to save Nigeria. He said, “The government and security agents are doing their best but except God brings solution to the problem, all their efforts cannot win the war against the insurgents. “Government is labouring, but except God intervenes there can’t be solution to the problem. We need God to come and intervene in the affairs of our nation. We will pray for God’s intervention in Nigeria’s problems during this crusade and we believe God will help us.” Adeniran, who had worked as a pastor in Chibok, Borno State where over 200 female students were abducted about five months ago said believers should intensify their prayers for the nation. The cleric, who said the problem of terrorism was not limited to Nigeria noted that the act was one of the signs of the end time. He urged Christians to be steadfast while calling on unbelievers to repent from their sins and begin to live a godly life. Adeniran, while speaking on the challenge which Ebola posed to Nigeria said the devil was at the root of the disease. He said, “Challenges have always been in this world. There are challenges in every generation and there will always be challenges till the end of every generation. Great events that made history passed through very tough challenges. So, what we are experiencing today should not be strange to us.” He urged anybody with Ebola symptoms to visit hospitals where they could be tested and treated. www.punchng.com/news/nigeria-will-overcome-its-security-challenge-kumuyi/ |
