Those Asking For Wike’s Resignation, Calling For God’s Judgment – PFN

The National Deputy President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) and archbishop of Dominion Chapel International Church, Archbishop John Praise Daniel, has said that those calling for the resignation of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Chief Nyesom Wike, were invariably calling for God’s judgement on themselves.
Addressing newsmen, on Friday in Abuja, Archbishop Daniel commended the minister for the transformative works he had since commenced immediately after he assumed office.
He said no tribe or religion can claim that they own Abuja, hence the city belongs to all Nigerians.
“On this occasion, I also welcome the Honourable Minister of the FCT, Mr Nyesom Wike, to Abuja. His transformative works in the capital are a testament to his dedication, and I am confident that he will continue to work diligently in service of our nation.
“Abuja belongs to all Nigerians, regardless of your tribe or religion- for it is God who determines our leaders. In Romans 13:1-3 “The authorities that exist have been established by God.
“Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Calling on the resignation of Wike, who did not do wrong, it’s like calling on God’s judgment on themselves.
“This is unacceptable and it must stop! I urge the minister to remain unwavering in fulfilling the President’s mandate for the FCT.
The cleric, who is also the Chairman Northern Coalition of Bishops and Apostles (NOCOBA), congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the affirmation of his victory at the presidential election by the Supreme Court.
He said the judgment was more than a political triumph, noting that the it was a testament to the strength, transparency, and integrity of our judiciary system.
“Our nation’s highest court has once again proven that it is a beacon of justice and that the will of the people will always be paramount. My dear Nigerians, this is a clarion call for unity.
“The affirmation by the Supreme Court transcends party lines and political allegiances. It is a reflection of our collective will as a people. Now, more than ever, is therefore time for us, irrespective of our political leanings, to come together and rally behind President Tinubu’s administration”, he said.
On the state of the economy, he lamented that the prices of essential food items have soared, making daily sustenance a struggle for many.
“It is imperative that we address these challenges with collective zeal to continue supporting the Renewed Hope agenda of Mr President for our Country. I, hereby, join the millions of Nigerians in urging the president to intensify his efforts to alleviate the sufferings of the masses”, he said.
