MERCY JOHNSON Urges Nigerians to Increase the tempo of their prayers.

Just as many Nigerians and people in some part of the world are calling for the release of the chibok girls who were abducted, Star actress, Mercy Johnson, has joined her colleagues in calling for the release of the missing Chibok schoolgirls. Here’s a write-up from her:

“Sometimes, our realities remind us of the pain of others. My reality as a mother is that I get to see my daughter every day, while the reality of the mothers of the kidnapped 234 Chibok girls is that they don’t even know where their daughters are.

I looked at my daughter and tears came to my eyes that some mothers have the privileges of seeing their kids on a daily basis while the mothers of the kidnapped girls can only console themselves with memories.

All well-meaning Nigerians must come together and help these mothers who have been in pain for more than two weeks and make the memory a reality — the reality of seeing their children again. Let us not for once think that the evil-doers who turn the realities of these mothers to memories cannot do the same to us if they have the opportunities.

This is not a war against select group of people; it is a war against all well-meaning mothers in Nigeria as injustice to one is injustice to all. Let the mothers rise, the men who love them should stand by their right hand and the children who adore them on their left and do all we can in our spheres of influence to ensure that the children come back home safe so that the mothers can smile again.

Can you pray? Increase the tempo of your prayers. Can you fast? Add extra days to it. If what you can do is protest, please do; perhaps you are a soldier and can go to the war front please do not sit still. You are a politician or a voice that Boko Haram can listen to, please speak.

We need the girls back!!! They are innocent, they have their future ahead of them, please do not cut it short. I dare say some of them will end up being the solution we desire to restore the lost and battered glory of this nation. Please don’t kill or damage the future all in the name of militancy.

I appeal to the soldiers and other security operatives, don’t be demoralised, please fight hard, fight more and fight on. Do not let this evil people for once think that they can get away with this. If they ever get away with this, let me assure you that we won’t all be able to sleep with our eyes closed and that includes you, your wives and children. If an Emir can be killed in his palace, who is safe in his or her home? Nobody!

I appeal to the political class and those in power, do not think that any right-thinking Nigerian would allow that this matter be swept under the carpet, this isn't one of the matters we would keep mum about. We will continue talking, praying, protesting until you make the matter your matter. If your child were one of the children that was abducted, we would probably have heard of the end of the matter. Let’s not fold our arms and let evil reign.

Nigeria shall be great, only if we do the right thing and the right thing at this moment is to bring our girls back and alive.”

Boko Haram Will Start Attacking Bigshots in Nigeria---Prophet TB Joshua

Prophet TB Joshua while preaching yesterday, 4^th of May, 2014 in his church said Boko Haram will start attacking bigshots in our society. Expressing his shock that political parties such as APC and PDP are against themselves instead of coming together as one to fight Boko Haram in Nigeria, he says it’s quite risky because the group would soon turn back to start attacking them.

 

It will be recalled that, Prophet TB Joshua has not stopped giving different prophesies every Sunday on the altar while he preaches, ever since the over 200 school girls disappeared into thin air. His words after the cut.

“Nigeria is calm; it is the political parties that are not calm. These political parties gave birth to militants and Boko Haram.”

 

“If our political class does not stop their campaigns and rallies and put aside the name of parties – APC, PDP, Labour – to come together to discuss as Nigeria, these people will turn against them. Any moment from now, you will hear of ‘bigshots’ being attacked.”

“They should suspend all rallies and acrimonious campaigns. It is this division that gave opportunity for hoodlums, militants and Boko Haram to explore and exploit,” he stated.
