Bayelsa is untapped with enormous potentials. Bayelsa has the longest shoreline in Nigeria. Bayelsa has the best and finest beaches in Nigeria.

There is a clear reason many church leaders are numb and insensitive towards the pain and anguish of persecuted Christians. It's very simple; They do not love Christ or His body. They only love their religious industries, so it's just about personal profit and interest. We have mastered the art of sending "prayer condolences" and the superficiality of offering occasional PR charity, where the social media budget supersedes the actual giving. If early Apostles were alive today, im sure that the current happenings in our country would have influenced their epistles, sermons, and public demeanor but we are no longer surprised to see chirch leaders share pictures advertising their happy meetings with the ungodly elites in societies as well as flaunting their wealth and "cursed blessings" hours and days after events that would have led to days of national mourning in any sane society. The Love for Christ and His body cannot be faked. For so many church leaders, it is simply not there. As long as "ministry is moving" who cares if the bloodshed lingers and the poor and vulnerable are afflicted? Expect "happy Sunday service pictures" and even "church party events" organised by people who dine with wicked kings but never sympathise with Christian commoners. I don't believe our preaching, prayers, and programs can change society. If they haven't changed the attitude and body language of our elite and famous preachers, how can they change the ungodly and unsaved? If those who stand behind the pulpit to "Christ", love, integrity, and righteousness are simply hirelings who are into the business of religious speech and "church empires", everything we do in the name of the Lord is actually service to self and to Satan the god of this world.
