Buhari can’t Islamise Nigeria- PFN chairman

By Alphonsus Nweze

Chairman of Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), Anambra state chapter, Rev. Moses Ezedebego, has said that President Muhammadu Buhari cannot Islamize Nigeria.

Rev. Ezedebego, who is also the secretary of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in the state said he was convinced as a Christian leader that nobody can Islamize Nigeria.

But, he sounded a note of caution to Christians in the country, saying “we must pray. We must open our eyes. We must be on guard.”

He lamented the high degree of insecurity in the country, which the government has refused to assume responsibility for, saying that the indifference on the part of government has created genuine suspicion among Christians in the country.

He said that “government is not doing anything. No herdsman has been prosecuted. We are concerned about that,” but however, urged Christians not to lose hope.

“We should remain consistent and steadfast. We cannot give up. Winners never quit and quitters never win. God has a way of defending his own people,” said Ezedebego.

Speaking on Easter, the PFN boss said without Easter there will be no Christianity, stressing that the celebration reminds all of God’s greatest manifestation of love by sending his son to take our place at the cross of Calvary.

“Jesus was our substitute sacrificial lamb. He was cursed for our sake” he said. Ezedebego said in spite of pressures on the Christians in this generation, there are still a lot who are committed to serving God.

“The only problem is that evil people are noise makers. We promote evil instead of good. There are thousands of prostitutes, armed robbers, cultists, criminals of all types who have given their lives to Christ,” he said.
