Senior Pastor of House on the Rock Church, Paul Adefarasin, says he does not believe that God created Nigeria.
Adefarasin, who stated this on Sunday while delivering a
sermon, stressed that Nigeria’s formation was not an act of divine will but
rather a product of British colonial interests aimed at serving their financial
agenda.
He challenged the popular belief that Nigeria was
established under God’s direction, stressing that colonial power struggles
shaped the country’s foundation.
“Nigeria, I do not believe it was created by God. I don’t
believe it. I believe that Queen Elizabeth got into a deal with the Ottoman
Empire and they had a deal concerning Sudan – those who care to buy the book,
buy the book. It’s called The Martyrdom of Man.
“As far as Africa was concerned, two empires got together
and decided that this land would go to the sons of Ishmael. It is self-evident,
but let’s not go there. This is not a political forum. This is a church and the
church has responsibilities to get right what man got wrong. She’s the light of
the world and the salt of the earth. That’s important,” Adefarasin said.
According to him, Nigeria’s constitution is illegitimate,
contending it was authored by the military rather than through the collective
will of the people.
Drawing from Psalm 11:3, the cleric compared the country’s
state to a building erected on unstable foundations.
The man of God further criticised the country’s leadership
and corruption, pointing to poor road construction as a symbol of Nigeria’s
broken systems.
