Josiah Chukwuma Onuoha, the presiding pastor of Christ Foundation Miracle International Chapel in Lagos, in an interview with The Sun has spoken on national issues, such as President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, Biafra and war against corruption.
On Buhari’s performance
“The president started well but the enemy wants to push him to overdo things. A good king is the one who always listens to himself and not just what people say to him. That is what makes one a wise king; he sits and meditates upon what people say to him and determines what is right or wrong before taking action.”
On Buhari’s administration
“What I would say is that the president does not have good advisers. The same thing that happened to ex-President Jonathan is gradually happening to him now.”
“Most of those advising him are trying to jeopardise his relationship with Nigerians so that people will hate him and conclude that he is a sadist. Look, the lord showed me where a raging crisis befell Nigeria and if Mr. President does not tread cautiously, the country would be plunged into deep crisis that will attract foreign trouble. I see Nigeria attracting foreign trouble – another country attacking Nigeria, if care is not taken. Most of these things happening in the country today are traps set to catch Mr. President.”
On war against corruption
“President knows the truth about the corrupt people under Jonathan administration or the Dasukigate but I think he wants to please Nigerians. I pray he doesn’t end up displeasing himself in the process. Most of all those involved in the deal are cliques that played one role or another when he was in the race for the 2015 presidential election. So, when you want to arrest thieves, you should also arrest those that have long-throat because they are under the same law.”
On the issue of Biafra
“He should apply utmost caution in dealing with the Biafra issue because spiritually and physically, it is beyond what the president’s eyes can see or comprehend. Let him use utmost wisdom to handle the issue otherwise Nigeria will regret it. The president should direct his aides and federal agencies concerned to obey whatever the court proclaims over the issue. Nobody is above the law and nobody should be seen to be above the law.”
“There is no way Biafra will not manifest in Nigeria someday. The Lord showed that to me long ago. The only thing I cannot tell is when it will come to pass. But the way it manifested was not through violence – killing people or shedding blood. It happened through peaceful means – peaceful protest.”
On Jonathan’s prosecution if he is found guilty of corruption
“I am not Goodluck Jonathan and I am not prepared to speak for anybody. But I would advise President Buhari and his aides to talk less. Let the President talk less and show more action. A king does not talk anyhow. Whatev¬er his aides say are taken as his direct words because they are his mouthpieces. If he loves himself, his credibility and this nation, he should talk less, because those that are making him to talk will still use his utterances to rope him and fight him in future. He is a king in this country and kings talk less. Let him talk less and the wisdom of God will come upon him.”
