Another pastor fumes, says if Nigeria doesn’t belong to all let it be divided (Video)

Despite calls against inciting messages, another Nigerian pastor and General Overseer, Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministries (MLMM) aka Liberation City, Dr. Chris Okafor has declared that the country should be divided, if citizens of a part of Nigeria feels it belongs to them.

The pastor who was embittered by the brutish manner Christians in Nigeria are being murdered across the country, most especially in Kaduna State by suspected Fulani herdsmen, said Nigeria belongs to all and not to any section of the country.

The pastor stated this in a video message which is currently trending on the internet, expressing frustration and anger over the attitude of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government to the plight of Nigerian Christians.

Recounting a latest experience he had with a victim of southern Kaduna massacre, Okafor said, “A man cried to me about two weeks ago. He told he does not have a place to stay. When I asked him why, he said where they were living in Kaduna was burnt, his 7-children and pregnant wife were killed but he ran for his dear life. And right now he is a widower, no wife no children.

“Nobody owns this country, we all own the country and no people can try to claim superiority over other ones, we all own the country.

“We are keeping quiet does not mean we are powerless, we can do something, we can fight, enough is enough! We all own this country, if the country does not belong to all of us again then let the country be divided and let those ones go to one side and we also go to the other side.”

Apparently angry with the happenings, Pastor Okafor bemoaned that the country is becoming heated up and ungovernable due to failures of the leaders.

“People are being killed in a country where there is government, and nobody seems to be saying anything, and anybody who says anything they come against that person, we are all ready to die for it.

“When they come with their cow to graze in your farmland, they destroy your farmland, and when you talk they kill you, because to them their cow is more important to them than your own life, why? Because you are seen as an infidel, you are seen as an unbeliever.

“Over 800 people have been killed in Kaduna and no arrest has been made, not even El Rufai, the Herod, that can even make a statement totally condemning the act, the short Herod could not even make a statement!” Okafor said.

The message is coming just as the Department of State Security (DSS) is alleged to be planning to detain pastors David Oyedepo and Johnson Suleiman over alleged hate and inciting messages.

Suleman had on Monday visited DSS headquarters in Abuja for interrogations following the invitation by the security operatives, whose earlier attempt to arrest him around 2am in Ekiti, when he travelled to the state for a two-day crusade, was foiled by Governor Ayodele Fayose.
