Senior Pastor of House on the Rock Church, Paul Adefarasin, has sparked a heated debate after declaring that Nigeria was not divinely created but was instead a colonial construction designed for British economic gain.

Speaking during a Sunday sermon, the cleric dismissed the idea of Nigeria being founded on God’s will, insisting that historical and colonial interests shaped its existence.

“Nigeria, I do not believe it was created by God. I don’t believe it. I believe that Elizabeth the first got into a deal with the Ottoman Empire and they had a deal concerning the Sudan and those who care to buy the book, buy the book. It’s written by a fellow called, the name of the book is The Martyrdom of Man.

“As far as Africa was concerned, two empires got together and decided that this land will go to the sons of Ishmael. It is self-evident, but let’s not go there. This is not a political forum. This is a church and the church has responsibilities to get right what man got wrong. She’s the light of the world and the salt of the earth. That’s important.

Adefarasin further argued that Nigeria’s constitution lacks legitimacy since it was imposed by soldiers rather than by “we the people.”

Quoting Psalm 11:3, he likened the nation’s predicament to a building raised on faulty foundations.

“I have no problem with people of any faith being in charge, but they must adhere to the constitution of we the people. And when a constitution proposed to be of we the people and it is not, it’s some soldiers who wrote it, you have to question why we obey that constitution.

“Nigeria cannot be a solid nation that is properly grounded going towards her destiny. We started to go, but the Bible says, Psalm 11 verse 3, if the foundation is corrupted, if it is destroyed, what can the righteous do? To build a sustainable building, you have to build a solid foundation. You do a soil test, you do your engineering statics and you determine what will carry this building and make it last for a long time.”

He also took aim at governance and corruption, citing shoddy road projects as a metaphor for Nigeria’s flawed systems.

“There’s a difference between any road and the road that they build that takes you to the Lagos airport. That’s a proper road. Why they build roads and resurface them wrongly, I don’t know.

“Somebody suggested to me that it’s that kind of road because they want the same contract next year. That means that somebody sitting down somewhere making decisions has no sense of equity and justice. Do you understand? I hope you get me.

The pastor dismissed Nigeria’s celebrated nationalist leaders, Obafemi Awolowo, Tafawa Balewa, Ahmadu Bello, and Nnamdi Azikiwe, as “not the true founding fathers.” Instead, he attributed the nation’s creation to British officials in Whitehall and Lord Lugard, whose girlfriend allegedly coined the name “Nigeria.”

“There was a colonial conquest coming from the Maghreb, the Sahel, and it was interrupted by another colonial conquest of the British. And the British are not, let me say it another way, Awolowo, Tafawa Balewa, Ahmadu Bello, and Azikiwe, they are not the founding fathers of Nigeria in my opinion.

“The founding fathers of Nigeria are some men from Whitehall and a fellow called Tob Goldman, his girlfriend, she named the country, and also Lugard.

“This nation was created for the business of the British purse so they wouldn’t have to bear the bill for the not as prosperous and wealthy part of the country.

Oya tell us which single country created by your sky God

He should have told Peter Obi this when he was campaigning for Peter Obi in his church to become President of a country not created by 'god' not after Peter Obi lost and is now hopeless.

Nigeria was created by God but named by man.
America was created by God but named by man.
So, because it’s not we Nigerians that named our country, does that mean we aren’t the creator?
Nigeria is not created by God because it is not
developed, but those countries develop or developing are created by God?
Because it was British that colonized us, was Nigeria the only country British colonized?
So, you mean “God created heaven and earth “ but Nigeria isn’t among the earth?
It is well.

who are you referring to as sky God? Be very careful! People wey do pass you were later humbled by God, some were not lucky to realize their foolishness whilst still alive be very careful. They're no atheist in Nigeria, frustrations made people not to believe the existence of God. Humans are the most funny creatures God created, WIKE that used to brag heaven will not fall if he does this and that you saw how he was speaking in an unknown tongues because of little engine failure? At that moment nothing concern him with being a minister of FCT or his arrogance, he was pleading to be alive. so people that use to claim atheist, a time is coming when you will explain the meaning of the word atheist to the creator but for now continue being a FAST MAN.

Saul is already on the throne, waiting for our David, Nlfpmod.

Pray and if possible add fasting join if you are having issue with me talking about one sky God

Many countries were colonized, no be only Nigeria.

Next topic please.

lol... God bless me nd my family... every other person, pray for urself

That makes sense. Nigeria disintegration is only a matter of time.

So wetin God create? All these pastors go dey contradict themselves

This is just common sense fact.


Those getting vexed and triggered are likely political sycophants.

God created the Earth, men carved up colonies and countries for their own personal greed.


Since the British intrusion into parts of Africa especially what is called or what they forcefully called "Nigeria" in a dumb amalgamation, things have worsened and still getting worse for generations.




The clear fact that "Nigerians" simply can't unite to set the nation on the right track for progress since 1999 underscores the reason why disintegration or at least regional government might be the way to go.

He knows what they want to hear and throw it at them .. oya make una dey call am real men of god ..your gods and not the living GOD ALMIGHTY

We have a faulty constitution and every government is avoiding fixing the constitution because it will affect them one way or the other...if we have a quality constitution, every organ of government will function independently, thereby reducing the abuse of power from any of them...the three organs of government, executive, legislation and judiciary will check each other to balance power and collectively protect the constitution and citizens of Nigeria....but what we have is organs of government that works for themselves against the country and the citizens....whenever tinubu says he came to fix Nigeria 🇳🇬...and that's why he removed subsidy and float naira...I laugh ...because if indeed we want to have real democracy, this constitution should be retired ...and New one that will fix the ills of society like tough laws against indiscipline and corruption ...with mindset to punish citizens that break the law and then have a tough electoral law with real independent empire Inec that will announce proper mandate of the people without interference from any quarters...then we are good to go....as tough as Donald Trump is ,he lost an election when Americans were tired of him...and they returned him when they want...this is how it should be...but here nothing like that will happen...because nobody want a working country...all we are after is tribe and religion instead uniting together to kick bad governance out of our national life

I totally agree. There are many things God was never involved in. Lets not deceive ourselves

Ask yourself, why United Kingdom is not a single country?
Oyibo that join people of different cultures as one couldn't unite themselves.

Was Britain created by God ... .nghhggghlmm......hggggggggg

Did God ever mentioned he created Nigeria in the first place

Is he suggesting that God created most countries minus Nigeria? I think it's obvious that countries are generally a man made concept.

Truly. Indeed no nation was created by God. The one in the middle east who claim they are have shown themselves to be murderous savages.

God stop creating things in Genesis chapter one. Every other things you see on earth is created by man through divine ability God puts in him.

The west knw the truth but keep managing us until wen the time will come like it happen with india, Pakistan and Bangladesh!

According to Christian beliefs and interpretations, God made all the nations including Nigeria and He determined the boundaries of their lands and the timing of their existence, but people, through their actions and governments, establish and define the borders of countries. While God is seen as orchestrating the existence of different peoples and their dwelling places, the specific political divisions we call countries are a human construct.

In Acts 17:26 state that God made from one man "every nation of mankind" and set the boundaries for their dwelling places including Nigeria we have today.

Fear is a tool for control..

Ashaaaa......I see what the colonial master did in the sky daddy's book

Each region was created by God but Nigeria by Britain...

Very True, its why I say we must break up.
Let the North get their Boko Haramistan.

Let the West make the Skull the center of their existence.

Then let the rest of use Niger Delta, South East & Middle Belt live as we want

This man lacks wisdom. Yet he looks wise. It’s a strange combination

This one too is not going to be permanent,If a man made creation like USSR collapsed.Preferably 36 countries
