Image123: So AIO, in other words, you're saying Jesus would today mobilize the people to protest against a 'democratic' government's policy?

What is this nonsense? What does this have to do with anything I said?

Pastor Kun: On the 28th of August 1963, a Baptist Church Pastor led 250,000 (largest crowd in the US capital ever)African Americans to the Lincoln Memorial, Washington to fight for the rights of the Black Man in America. 5 years after, 6.01pm on the 4th of April, 1968, Pastor Martin Luther King was killed for having the audacity to challenge a 140 year status quo. He was killed but today America is a free society. That is faith as exemplified by Christ. Where is the faith of our Bishops and Pastors. Christians should fast and pray today for the nation when we should put action to our faith? Are the pastors not aware that most Nigerians have been fasting for 9 years on less than a $1 a day? Our Christian leaders are proud to host the President and Governors at their convention rather than confront the system. Can you imagine a rally in Abuja with Pastor Adeboye, Bishop Oyedepo, Sam Adeyemi in the front and we their congregation behind them? GEJ will take to his heels, remove subsidy, get power sector working. We will effect a 40year change in 4 hours. Acts of the Apostles is a compendium of actions and not fasting of the Apostles. We are the salt of the earth, salt must enter the hot stew and dissolve to sweeten the cooking. I am not fasting today, I need a march led by our Christian leaders. There is a price to freedom that the church alone can and must pay for our nation to move forward.

Joagbaje: There are good things about the subsidy removal. We can channel the money to build refineries , and eventually the price will come down. But the question is trust. How do we trust those in power to use the money aright

Pastor AIO: Here is something interesting that Sanusi Lamido had to say about the subsidies and those that are benefitting from them.




I think that the nigerian government is a red herring and a useful distraction for those that are really destroying the country.  When things go wrong people are directed to the government to complain, but the problem is a lot more subtle than that. 

Nigeria is being ruled by very very powerful cabals.  The Fuel marketing cabal is one of them.  They have an active interest in making sure that electricity is not available to nigerian via NEPA.
The pentecostal churchs are themselves another very powerful cabal.  And whenever anyone complains about them they will point at GEJ and say, why don't you complain to your government.


History has always been the struggle between some powerful people against another lot of powerful people.  And those who suffer the most are the poor man on the street.  Like they say in 9ja, when 2 elephants are fighting it is the grass that suffers.
