Nigerians Will Still Look For Jonathan – Villa’s Chaplain by Adeyeancah(m): 7:24pm On Apr 05, 2015
The Chaplain to the President, Ven. Obioma
Onwuzurumba, on Sunday said despite losing the March
28 presidential election, Nigerians would still look for
President Goodluck Jonathan.
He said at a point, Nigerians would seek Jonathan’s
advice.
Onwuzurumba said this while delivering his sermon
titled, ‘The Lord is risen indeed’, during the Easter
Sunday service held at the Aso Villa Chapel.
He likened Jonathan to Jesus Christ, whose disciples,
he said, were not even convinced that he was the
messiah and that he would resurrect.
He said although the President was not Jesus Christ, he
was like the messiah.
The clergyman said, “This Jonathan they did not want,
they will look for him.
“This Jonathan they despised, they will look for him.
“They will seek his advice. He is not Jesus but he is like
Jesus. I am not here to praise him.
“The disciples did not have the confidence that Jesus,
who did many things in their lives and that of the people
was the messiah, and if indeed, he would resurrect
again.”
Onwuzurumba argued that irrespective of what
anybody would say, Jesus Christ resurrected and is
alive.
“Except you are sincere with God, you will not get
salvation. If you never acknowledge your sins before
God, you are just playing religion.
“The cross is empty, nobody is hanging there anymore.
The tomb is also empty, Jesus is alive. Before you can
tell others about Jesus, you must have a testimony of
him changing you life,” he added.
The first lesson of the service was read by the
chaplain’s wife from Psalm 16 while the second lesson,
taken from Luke 24:13-35, was read by the Senator
representing FCT, Philip Aduda.

I'm just confused; I thought Mrs. Jonathan was the Jesus Christ on earth. Now she's contesting the position with her husband
