The Minister of Information, Labaran Maku, has said President Goodluck Jonathan and the Army alone cannot bring back the abducted Chibok, Borno State schoolgirls.
The minister also said nobody would drive the President away through bombings.
He said it would take the concerted efforts of Nigerians and the communities in the Northeast to fight and win the war against insurgency.
Maku spoke yesterday at the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries’ Regional Headquarters in Abuja where he worshipped with his wife, Mary.
The minister said the villagers in the Chibok community should support security agencies to rescue the abducted schoolgirls.
He said: “The girls have been missing for long. The community should expose the perpetrators; they live among them. There should be no sacred cows.”
Maku said Nigeria was going through torments from hell, adding that peace should be redefined in the country.
He said: “There are too many contentions from the pit of hell in the name of Boko Haram and kidnappers against President Goodluck Jonathan. But a time shall come when all shall varnish.”
The minister urged Christians to confront the evils facing the nation through prayer, adding: “Peace can’t be won until the people of God command things to happen through prayers.
“Peace in Nigeria is derailing because some people are not doing the will of God. Many Nigerians are confronting President Jonathan with their pride and ego. They are saying: ‘How can a man from the minority tribe continue to rule Nigeria, a man that cannot even afford to wear shoes while in school?’ Whether the kingdom of hell likes it or not, this nation must move forward. President Jonathan must succeed.
“If all Nigerians can worship in truth, crises will cease in Nigeria. We must recover our country from those who continue to take us for granted.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

The community can not expose anyone when the government is scared to expose the sponsors. What is the matter with these politicians? The security agencies cant even protect these people and you are asking them to come out to expose them . Keep quiet young man.
ReplyDeleteEveryone is hidding behind prayer, you people are so corrupt, yet you keep hammering on prayers. Stop using police protection when you move around and pray. Soon the military will drop their guns and pray. The US brought down Osama with force and skills.
ReplyDeleteDon't mind this big-mouth minister of lies. You politicians have been 'chopping' alone, so why can't you people fight BH alone and stop calling on all Nigerians to support the fight. My grievance with these killers is that they are killing the wrong people, let them attack the politicians and their interests and Nigerians will support them (BH), because these politicians are worst than the Haramists - they (politicians) have been killing Nigerians for very long time now. Let me also add that prayers can never help or save anyone, Jesus even said it. Only one's good works can, the question then is - are our so-called leaders doing good works? No!!!, they are just busy stealing, misusing our wealth for their own and immediate families benefits, look at the military, which is even poorly funded despite the huge defense budget. Where has the money gone to? We know of course! into the politicians and some generals' pockets. So let them do the fighting alone, but I beg the Haramists to leave the ordinary Nigerians alone and go the governments houses with their bombs. Period!
