* ‘Now not time to play politics with nation’s challeges’
The leader of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star,(BCS), Olumba Olumba Obu has said that Nigeria’s current economic and insecurity challenges would soon be a thing of the past if Nigerians seek divine help.
The leader also told Nigerians, particularly, politicians that now is not the time to play politics with the current insecurity and economic problems facing the nation.
Obu, who made the remark at a press conference in Enugu to announce the universal celebration of the BCS mega event, tagged, ‘Divine Assurance of the Christhood,’ said Nigerians should come together and reflect on what binds them together and explore the great potentials embedded in the nation by God.
Obu, who spoke through the BCS spokesman, Patriarch Christ Shepherd Amah Williams, added that the upcoming BCS mega event, scheduled to hold in Calabar, the Cross River State capital would be to pray for the country, from March 25 to April 1, 2024.
According to him, when an individual or society attains Christhood, every good thing happens at the command of such a person or society.
He said: “Beyond inviting the inhabitants of the world to this event, His Holiness Olumba Olumba Obu, is also calling on all citizens and leaders alike to put their hope and trust in God following the present economic situation in the country and in the world.
“This is not the time to resort to violence or politicization of every issue but it is the time for all to come together and
reflect on what binds all Nigerians together and explore the great potentials embedded in this Nation so loved by God.
“You will accept with me that serious economic challenges have long been plaguing this country and other parts of the world. The times are hard and there is no doubt about that. The great tribulation much talked about seem to be already here. There seem to be no solution in sight. Mankind had lost all hopes of ever being able to get back onto a better future and no one knows for sure what to do to ameliorate the situation in the midst of despair, confusion and hardship currently ravaging the world.
“Leader Olumba Olumba Obu has brought divine assurance unto humanity. Nigerians should know that with God, this gathering storm of uncertainty will birth a new era peace and prosperity.
“This is the assurance brought by Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, it is the hope of salvation to all mankind. In this assurance lies peace, prosperity and the solution to all challenges facing mankind”.
While urging Nigerians to take the message seriously, he said that those fanning the embers of disunity, violence and corruption in the country would Face divine judgment once the spiritual route was followed.
