The Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry in Enugu, Nigeria, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has issued a stark warning to the federal government regarding the potential upheaval stemming from the suffering inflicted on Nigerians by the removal of the fuel subsidy.
The impassioned priest urged the government to reinstate the subsidy, arguing that its removal has plunged citizens into hardship, and asserted that once protests begin, they will be unstoppable.
Speaking during a homily titled “Miracle of Open Doors,” Mbaka decried the subsidy removal, emphasizing that it should not translate into billions for governors while the poor masses endure continued suffering.
He cautioned those manipulating Nigeria’s economy and perpetuating hardship against the wrath of God, declaring, “The Hammer of God is coming to break the chains of the evil one; no padlock is too strong for the Hammer of God to shatter.”
Mbaka called on President Bola Ahmed to consult experts to devise strategies that can help alleviate the economic crisis burdening the nation.
He stressed that collective efforts are essential to prevent the impending danger that could impact all leaders, regardless of their political affiliations, stating, “When the prophetic power of God begins to withdraw from the sanctuary, the government will inevitably feel the consequences.”
“Look at what is happening in the country with a buoyant riches of liquid and solid minerals with best ecological weather in the whole world. The demographic structure of the country is wonderful, 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, our land is fertile for any type of crops but look at us importing garri, rice, pencil, matches, soap, toothpaste, importing our own crude oil.
“If you go to 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 has their salary not finished. This problem started from the past government but I believe the present government can do something.
“We can not continue like this. Shall we continue like this?, never we can not. I am not blaming anybody but I am thinking that If they can not provide 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 maths, 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 industrialist from the banks be lowered, how can somebody be effectively take a loan from the bank and be paying 40℅, how? It’s an indirect way of increasing criminality. Its 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 can not eat. Imaging a parent with 6 children, his 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, Major two groups, Christians and Muslims who are handling Bible and 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 say efe-tal open, can’t we open the doors of industrialization and technology. Look at what is happening in Bukinafaso, 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 Bukinafaso that technological facilities will locate you.
“The international Monetary Fund, IMF have been asking them to come and borrow money and the 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 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 book of Isaiah 35, “We shall tell those who are saddened to fear not” despite what is happening in the country, I tell you fear not but woe be tied to those who are perpetuating this over suffering and a cronyism thinking that nothing will happen. And say do you know who I am, I am the minister, Senator, Honourable representing this and that, I am the governor, President.
“I don’t care who you are. Who you are is six feet. In summary, one day all these 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 open the doors of this suffering and people will begging to enjoy the wealth of the land. It’s now 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 a massculus psychology, one of the basic fact is how will I survive. And a time when immortality will become a culture and tradition. That’s what is happening and it will soon effect 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 face 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 months 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 can not continue like this. The doors must open. Look at, the doors to foreign country opens and the doors to enter Nigeria closed. How many Americans are coming to invest here, how many new company 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 if demonic inflation. Church has never had it thus way in thus country. The cars that have been climbing the hills has failed 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 solution 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, even doe being constantly misunderstood, if I am saying the truth, they will misunderstand Mbaka. This is what I have been cring 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 not 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 is now looking for wewe to help them eat. Back to the root. Are you going to the village, do you have any house in the village? Is the farm safe? The cancer in Nigeria has become maligners and metastasize. We need miracle of God to open the door of healings,” he said.
