Nigeria is in the grip of a severe security crisis. Killings, kidnappings, and violent attacks have become almost routine, leaving citizens terrified and unprotected. This is no longer about one group, it has turned into a nationwide Nigerian genocide, affecting people across regions and religions. The sad reality is that criminals now operate with boldness because there is no effective national response. Security agencies are overstretched, and leadership is not providing the urgent direction the moment demands. A President’s most basic responsibility is to protect lives and secure the nation. If President Tinubu cannot guarantee the safety of Nigerians, then he has failed in his primary duty. It is a national embarrassment to see our leader calling on Donald Trump and appealing to American lawmakers while our own country is sinking deeper into insecurity. Nigeria needs decisive leadership, not foreign consultations. If Tinubu is not capable of restoring security and protecting Nigerians, then he should step aside and resign. The nation cannot continue like this. @officialABAT

Visiting the Flock: Care, Connection, and Compassion As part of our ongoing 21 Days of Appreciation Thanksgiving, I took time to personally visit members of our congregation not merely as a leader, but as a spiritual father, seeking to know them, understand their needs, and remind them that they are cherished members of God’s family. The Word of God reminds us in 1 Thessalonians 2:7–8: “But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children: so being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.” It is in this spirit that I visited our members: to listen, to pray, and to bring comfort and encouragement into their lives. These visitations are an opportunity to walk with our members in their daily realities, to celebrate their joys, share in their burdens, and discern where the church can come alongside them in practical ways. It is a reminder that the house of God is more than a building; it is a family, bound together by faith, love, and care for one another. As I met with our brothers and sisters, I was reminded that ministry is not only about preaching from the pulpit, but also about being present, offering support, and demonstrating the love of Christ in tangible ways. To see their faces, hear their stories, and pray with them personally is to witness the heartbeat of our ministry a ministry rooted in compassion, fellowship, and the shepherding love of God. The visitation is a declaration of unity and belonging. Every member is valued, every life is precious, and every need is seen. May these efforts inspire hope, strengthen faith, and deepen the understanding that we are truly a family in Christ, walking together in His light. As it is written in Romans 12:10: “Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another.” It is this love, this care, and this honour that guides every step of these visitations. To our beloved members: you are seen, you are valued, and you are loved. May the Lord continue to bless your households, meet your needs, and fill your hearts with peace and joy.

During one of our services in the week, titled “God Will Not Put Me to Shame” Prayer Outreach, I gave a warning on July 17th 2025 and urged Nigerians to pray for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu so that he would not miss his leg and fall. Unfortunately, the incident later occurred, but I thank God that nothing serious happened and no harm came in between. To God be the glory.

I have seen a particular news report attributing a prophecy to me, and I want to clearly state that I did not issue such a prophecy. I do not know when or how this statement was said to have come from me. Over time, many of my prophecies have been twisted or published out of context, with full details deliberately omitted to suit the narratives of bloggers and other platforms. I usually choose to ignore such misrepresentations, but this specific report is false and requires correction.

On Budget, Taxes, and the Responsibility of Leadership I have spoken on matters of governance, budget, and taxation, and it is necessary that the people understand clearly what I mean. Let no one mistake my words: my concern is not against taxes themselves, for they are a tool given to governments to serve the people. But I speak against injustice, mismanagement, and systems that burden the citizen unnecessarily. Taxes are meant to build the nation. They are meant to provide security, infrastructure, education, healthcare, and support for those in need. Yet, I have observed that often, these contributions are not used as intended. When the people give willingly, they deserve to see the fruit of their sacrifice. Roads must be built, schools must function, hospitals must serve, and public safety must be assured. Anything less is a betrayal of trust. I also declare that not every payment or transaction should be taxed. There are times when taxation is overbearing and unreasonable. This is not the way of justice. A nation prospers when its laws are fair and its citizens are treated rightly, not when they are crushed under unnecessary financial burdens. Government has a duty to make these systems known to the people. Clear public notice and education on taxation are not optional they are required. The people must understand what is taxable, what is exempt, and how their contributions will be used. Ignorance is not bliss when it comes to the livelihood of the people. Furthermore, when tax refunds are due, they should not be made difficult or obstructed. The system must respect honesty and diligence, not punish it. Transparency, accountability, and integrity must guide every step of governance. Let me say this plainly: my words are not an attack. They are a warning and a call to righteousness. Leadership that mismanages, misleads, or burdens its people will face the consequences of disobedience to justice. Taxes, when rightly collected and rightly used, can build a nation; when misused, they can destroy trust and hinder progress. The prayer and hope of this ministry is that leadership will be fair, transparent, and responsible, that the people will understand their obligations, and that every kobo collected will be directed to the service of the nation and its citizens. Let this serve as guidance, correction, and a prophetic word for our time: a nation grows strong when its leaders are righteous and its people are respected.

It's always a joyful thing when God gives me the opportunity to be a blessing to those around me. I was deeply touched by Pastor Akachukwu’s message during one of our services, especially when he shared how God has been faithful to him. His testimony clearly reflected the heart of a man who is truly grateful to God. One part of his message that stayed with me was his lifelong dream of having ₦1 million in his account. I couldn’t help but take steps to make that desire a reality. Stay blessed

@PatriceTalonPR I have said it before: when a nation disregards prophetic warnings, it walks into preventable trouble. Benin Republic was cautioned. I spoke plainly that if the leadership continued on a path of stubbornness, trying to manipulate the political process or impose a personal candidate, the military would rise and the nation would face unrest. Now the signs have manifested. Yes, the attempted coup was seized on time, but this is only a warning shot. President Patrice Talon must be extremely watchful. Let there be a fair election. Do not force a successor on the people. Any attempt to control or influence the outcome will only reopen the door to deeper instability. ECOWAS and the AU were also warned. When leaders ignore justice, when they silence the people, when they treat the nation as their own possession, the land responds. What happened is not ordinary, it is a sign of what can grow if wisdom is not applied. Benin must allow its citizens to experience real democracy. Let the people choose freely. Let there be transparency, fairness, and truth. This is the only path to peace. My duty is to speak what has been revealed. The leaders must act with humility and sincerity before the situation returns with greater force. #beninrepublic #coupattempt #bene

@PatriceTalonPR Je l’ai dit auparavant : lorsqu’une nation ignore les avertissements prophétiques, elle s’engage dans des troubles évitables. La République du Bénin a été mise en garde. J’ai parlé clairement que si la direction continuait sur un chemin d’entêtement, essayant de manipuler le processus politique ou d’imposer un candidat personnel, l’armée se soulèverait et la nation connaîtrait des troubles. Maintenant, les signes se sont manifestés. Oui, la tentative de coup d’État a été arrêtée à temps, mais ce n’est qu’un avertissement. Le président Patrice Talon doit être extrêmement vigilant. Qu’il y ait une élection juste. Ne forcez pas un successeur sur le peuple. Toute tentative de contrôler ou d’influencer le résultat ne fera que rouvrir la porte à une instabilité plus profonde. La CEDEAO et l’UA ont également été averties. Lorsque les dirigeants ignorent la justice, lorsqu’ils font taire le peuple, lorsqu’ils traitent la nation comme leur propre propriété, la terre réagit. Ce qui s’est passé n’est pas ordinaire, c’est un signe de ce qui peut croître si la sagesse n’est pas appliquée. Le Bénin doit permettre à ses citoyens de vivre une véritable démocratie. Laissez le peuple choisir librement. Qu’il y ait transparence, équité et vérité. C’est le seul chemin vers la paix. Mon devoir est de parler de ce qui a été révélé. Les dirigeants doivent agir avec humilité et sincérité avant que la situation ne revienne avec une force plus grande.

Congratulations to the new Minister of Defense. Thanks to the President for heeding spiritual counsel to replace the previous minister, who had no military experience. If we truly want to strengthen the military and effectively combat banditry, terrorism, and kidnappings, it’s crucial to put the right hands in charge. Likewise, the Minister of State for Defense Bello Muhammad Matawalle, should also be replaced if he lacks military experience. Such positions are not for political favors, they hold huge responsibility and require competence to safeguard national security. We look forward to you working on this Mr. President @officialABAT

The nomination of General Christopher Musa as Nigeria's new Minister of Defense is a welcome development. As part of my several advises to President Tinubu, I had mentioned that there was a need to stop making use of politicians in sensitive positions especially when it comes to security. I specifically told the president to recall General Christopher Musa to serve in a position that would benefit the nation's security. With his nomination, The president has shown that he indeed listens to spiritual guidance and is willing to tackle insecurity. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
