The General Superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church (DLBC), Pastor William Kumuyi has said that God will not let Nigeria break up in 2015. He said this to journalists yesterday in Eyenkorin, Ilorin in Kwara state at the kick-off of a three-day crusade of the Deeper Life Bible Church.
Kumuyi cautioned against any attempt by a group of persons or individuals to cause the disintegration of the country. According to him, any attempt to allow a section of the country to secede would lead to more disintegration and eventual destruction of a nation established by God for His purpose.
He said, “Sometimes people misunderstood the power of prophecy and there are people who will make negative pronouncements. Pronouncements are not necessarily prophecies. Every utterance on Nigeria breaking up is a pronouncement made from observations and not prophecies.
“I believe those who made those pronouncements based on some things they see or feel should say ‘they feel Nigeria may break up’ and not that God said that. Because if God could hear the voice of only Moses and spared Israel and they still exist over 3,000 years after, then God loves Nigeria and would not allow it to break up.
“God has a purpose for Nigeria. When people talk of division, the truth is that once you start the process, it never ends. Once you say, ‘people in the North, go your way and those in the South, go your way,’ there are other people who will also rise up to say they too want to go their own way even within you. You know what happened in the 1960s; several sides will begin to be asked to go away but I know that God has a purpose for bringing Nigeria together and we shall remain one.”
He urged Nigerians not to elect leaders based on ethnic or religious biases but they should evaluate the manifestos of political parties and their candidates to vote wisely.
