Speaking
at the 54th independence anniversary interdenominational service held
at the National Christian Centre yesterday Sept 28, president of the
Christian Association of Nigeria pastor Ayo Oritsejafor explains why
Nigeria was able to defeat Ebola in a short spate of time. He says:
“When
(Patrick) Sawyer brought Ebola to Nigeria, it was in Lagos that this
incidence happened and in terms of politics, Lagos is an opposition
party but the central government is the ruling party. From Lagos, Ebola
moved to Rivers State and this is also an opposition party’s state. But
because all Nigerians fought Ebola irrespective of political persuasion,
irrespective of religion, or ethnicity, we defeated Ebola. We appealed
to people to stop shaking hands, and as individuals, Nigerians became
very hygienic. It was not just one person, or Mr. President or the
Governors, or other officials, yes they did their work, but we defeated
Ebola because all Nigerians agreed to fought the war against Ebola. That
is the strengthen of unity.”
He also placed curses on politicians he termed as ‘desperate:’
“The
punishment of God” would come upon “desperate politicians “their
children and grandchildren may not be as lucky”. “There is a consequence
for the actions we are deliberately taken to trouble this nation.
Nigeria is being troubled by Nigerians. Even if outsiders do, insiders
are accomplices. Repercussion will come. “God’s judgments are coming for
troublers of Nigeria. If they escape, their children or their
children’s children may not. There must be a reward. “Wives, instead of
covering up your husbands’ madness, warn them not to start the madness
in order not to bring unnecessary judgment on yourself and children. You
will not get away with it. The judgment of God will find those
troubling Nigeria.”
President Jonathan and his wife, Dame Patience were among the attendance at the service.
