The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) yesterday advised the south east chapters of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) to stop their prayers for Nigeria, claiming that praying for Nigeria connotes supporting the marginalisation of the Igbo.
In a statement by its leader, Comrade Uche Madu which was made available to journalists in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, MASSOB further demanded that the weekly prayers offered in churches every Sunday for Nigeria should stop now “because the God of Bible can never answer prayers that oppose his divine will.”
The group said that praying for the continued existence of Nigeria simply means praying for unprovoked killing and oppression of Christians, mostly the Igbo in the country.
According to Madu, the prayers also mean the continuity of the agenda of the Hausa-Fulani to impose Islamic religion and to spiritually energise the Islamic fundamentalists, including the Fulani herdsmen, to continue their killing of Christians in Nigeria.
“MASSOB wants the Igbo Christian leaders in Catholic, Anglican, Methodist, Presbyterian churches and all pentecostal churches in Biafra land to see the impending doom and spiritual danger of continuous prayers for Nigeria.
“MASSOB also warns on the proliferation of Yoruba churches in Biafraland. MASSOB is not happy that Yoruba church leaders are using Igboland as a fertile land for economic adventures through the plantation of churches owned by them. To our amazement, these churches which include Mountain of Fire and Miracles, Redeemed Christians Church of God, Christ Embassy, Winners Chapel do not appoint Igbo man as a pastor in charge even in Igbo land.
“The leadership of these churches in Igbo remote villages also appoints their Yoruba kinsmen as local presiding pastors. All their states, zonal, regional and provincial pastors and superintendents are Yoruba posted to Biafraland to represent the monetary interest of their general overseers. MASSOB warns these Yoruba church leaders to stop this religious colonialism against the people of Biafra now,” the group said.
