Chukwudike Ndubeze, Awka.
Anglican Archbishop of Ecclesiastical Province of the Niger and Bishop, Diocese of Awka, Most Revd. Alexander Ibezim, has predicted that the detained Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, would be released in May.
Ibezim said this Saturday at the 2022 Awka Diocesan annual prayer convention entitled: “This Mountain Shall Be Removed,” held at the premises of Paul University, Awka, Anambra State.
The priest prophesied at the event that God would touch the leadership of the country to release the IPOB leader so as to end the killings and destructions in the Southern region of the country.
Speaking under prophesy the cleric declared: “God has already given us a breakthrough. We are going to celebrate a breakthrough.
“We shall witness fantastic testimony and we are making a declaration that wherever Nnamdi Kanu is, he will be released by this time next month.
“God will touch the leadership of Nigeria so that this calamity that is taking place in the South-East will end.
“By this time next month or anytime in the month of May, he will be released and there will be peace in eastern Nigeria and Anambra State especially.
“I’m not a politician but a prophet and when a prophet speaks, things happen. It is time that injustice ceased to exist in Nigeria. Injustice, killings and calamities will cease in south-eastern Nigeria.
“If we watch my prayers, I didn’t pray like politicians who always do things to attract attention. I believe that my people will be set free and there won’t be war or destruction in this land.
“We need humility because nobody is safe when the poor are not safe. The rich in our midst must do everything to ensure the safety of the poor. Otherwise they won’t be safe to enjoy their riches. So both the rich and the poor should cry unto God.
“We are going through insecurity and poverty, difficulties and challenges especially in the South-East. I believe that God has answered our prayers and the women are going home with joy.
“People are so bothered. There are wars and insecurity. When these happen, it’s an indication that people need to come together seek God’s face. We don’t need human wisdom to handle spiritual matters.”
In a sermon, Bishop of Jebba, in Kwara State, Rt. Revd Dr. Oluwaseun Aderogba, said that God was ready to remove obstacles that had hindered justice to the people of the country.
He urged Christians to rely on God who he said, remained the solution to the numerous challenges in the land.
Earlier, the Convention Coordinator, Ven. Ifeanyi Umeh, said the prayer convention removed mountains of insecurity, sickness, bad governance, poverty, economic hardship, wastage of human lives, unemployment and many more others tormenting Christians around the country and beyond.
Also speaking, Ven. Prince Chuma Oranye emphasized that the theme was for the people to pray so that the devil would not have its way in the troubled state again.
“The people are faced with burdens. Also the state is troubled in several ways. We need rest and we are here to have rest in every area of our life.”
