Yar’Adua’s Ill-health: Cleric Cautions Against Military Take-Over
The National Vice-President of Mount Zion Light House Full Gospel Church, Bishop Jacob Brown Udobang, has condemned any attempt by the military to take over power in the cause of the seeming crisis over the presidency following the ill-health of President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. Bishop Udobang gave the warning in Calabar while robbing minds with newsmen on the present health condition of President Yar’Adua currently outside the country. The cleric, who spoke on behalf of National President of the Church, said “we are tired of military rule in this country.” He declared “no one should rule the country under bloodshed. We do not want soldiers to rule this country again under blood bath because God forbids.” In answer to a question, he said, “though some people may be calling for military regime; those calling for such distasteful rule are people who have no fear of God.” According to him, “when the righteous rule, the people rejoice, stressing that, ‘I have confidence in the Nigerian democracy. “ Bishop Udobang further maintained, “as soon as the military takes over government, nobody will be able to contend or control the rate and level of corruption in the system.” On whether the present administration has really performed, he contended that, “this present administration is doing fine given the enormous problems it inherited. Today, the government is fighting corruption, secret cult and other vices in our society.” He also declared that, “any nation that refuses God cannot move forward. We should learn as Christians to accept Christ as Our Lord and Saviour. I am highly against corruption as a man of God.” The Cleric commended the former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo for preparing the notion for the height it has attained today. “He is a great leader who meant well for his country Nigeria and Africa as a whole”, he opined. He however advised Nigerians to repent from their wrong doings so that the nation can move forward with other developing notions of the world.
