Nigerian's Cry Out Over Electricity Supply


The Map of Nigeria, showing the 36 States
 
It saddens my heart that our political leaders are yet to tap from the anointed men and women, whom God has placed to point their nations to the path of development and progress. Several years ago, God revealed to me the spiritual problems frustrating electricity supply in Nigeria. I then wrote to late President Umaru Yar'dua through the then Vice-President, Goodluck Jonathan, telling them the revelation and the solution proffer by the Holy Spirit. But nothing was done and six years on the situation remained unchanged. To confirm the revelation, in 2011, a dynamic Minister of Power was appointed in the person of Professor Nnaji; he went against all odds to shake the rot inside the power sector and the result was one year of continuous power supply.  What he did took the spiritual deity, Sango, by surprise and the attack on him came from within and outside. His appointment was unceremoniously terminated because a power company he has interest in bided for one of the power generating plants. All those whom he knew had no business buying up power generating plants ganged up against him and made him look like a villain.
 
I wish to implore you, Mr President,  as your administration put together the necessary resources to tackle the endemic power generation and distribution problems of the country; first tackle the spiritual side of the crisis plaguing the power sector, which has caused more than thirty years of epileptic power supply! It is only then the nation would witness true manifestation of regular and uninterrupted power supply; thus saving the Nigerian tax payers billions of dollars in phantom electricity supply. Some times, Mr President, the solution to our problems may be very small, but we trivialize it, because Almighty God has not given us eyes to see beyond the physical. To this day, Mr President, our Father in Heaven, is still speaking and revealing things to his Servants and Ministers on earth.

Nigeria is in God’s plan for mankind in this generation. Evidence abound in the effect Nigerian Ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ are having globally. Mr President, Nigeria has the potential and capacity to generate and distribute electricity that will affect every facets of the economy. It is only a God given solution that will take us to the promise land of the Vision 202020 aspiration for the power sector.  Sir, there is a spiritual cloud that has been hanging over the power sector for over thirty years, it’s a curse that negate every good intentions of government for the sector. That is the reason regular and constant supply of electricity has eluded the nation in spite of the billions of dollars spent by past governments. The spiritual strongholds the founding fathers dedicated the power sector to are having their pound of flesh, because no sacrifices have been offered to them. The curse of the sector is from Almighty God and not from man. ( II Chronicle 7: 14)

THE PROBLEM: The faulty foundation the founding fathers of NEPA laid after independence is responsible for the power saga of our nation. As the engine room of every country’s economic growth and success, the Nigerian power sector – which is it’s livewire was wrongly dedicated by the Federal Government to the Yoruba deity of Thunder, Sango - a human made god.( I Kings 18: 24 -39)

To further cement the pact with the deity in the 1970s, the first headquarters of NEPA in Lagos had the Sango statue boldly erected in its frontage. Thus sealing the covenant between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the Yoruba god of thunder, Sango, where it concerns electricity generation in Nigeria. What Nigeria is reaping today in terms of poor power generation and supply is the result of that covenant. As the deity is not appeased in annual sacrifices, he takes it in the form of drain pipe investments in the sector. Although, the name of NEPA has been changed to PHCN and its headquarters moved to Abuja from Lagos, the point of covenant and release still remains in Lagos. 

The 2013 privatization of the electricity sector is a physical reality, but a spiritual mirage. Many independent power plants have been commissioned and more embarked upon, these actions have not annulled the covenant with this agents of darkness. There are God given processes that have to be followed in order to break this age old evil power over the Electricity sector.  These are the spiritual reality the Nigerian government has to face. In spite of the current investments in the sector, regular or steady electricity is still epileptic!
