Save Northern Nigeria: Al- Mustapha appeals to Muoka

Success Damian Former Chief Security Adviser to the late General Sani Abacha, Maj. Hamza Al-Mustapha and founder of the newly floated political party, Green Party of Nigeria, (GMP), has appealed to The General Overseer of the Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement, Pastor Lazarus Muoka to come to the rescue of the 19 States of Northern Nigeria from the incessant crisis in the area. He made the appeal on Sunday at the end of the 4-day International Crusade titled; What God Has Determined Shall Be Done, organized by the Lord’s Chosen at Mgbidi in Oru West Local Government Area of Imo State. Al-Mustapha who made a surprise appearance at the crusade said his main mission to the Christian gathering was to appeal to Muoka to acknowledge with a peculiar interest on the problems in Nigeria, especially in the North, as they are escalating into something bigger.  Al-Mustapha regretted that the Northern States are presently bedeviled with so many social problems and requires sincere and honest people like Muoka, who can direct and pass the right messages to the people. “We want Pastor Muoka to extend his evangelism to the north, so as to change the situation for good. If we allow terrorism to get deep and rooted, it may snowball into affecting other parts of Nigeria. Besides people are dying every day. So, there is need to bring people who have the capacity to bring Nigeria out of its present situation.”  Al-Mustapha explained that corruption, increase in crime rate, terrorism,  high unemployment rate, people dying across waters and poor education system are nothing to write home about. “Also, infrastructure is nowhere to be found, so many promises, but not fulfilled. There is too much money, but nothing to show for it. Institutional decay, nepotism, gender inequality problems etc are posing serious problems in Nigeria. Besides, people are dying every day, so there is a need to bring people whom we know, have the capacity to bring Nigeria out of its present situation.  The CSA said therefore that it was high time Nigerians resorted to the likes of Muoka to seek for help and direction for them to make ends meet and be free from the instabilities confronting the nation. The north at the moment is bedeviled with so many social problems and therefore requires people who are honest, sincere and can as well, direct and pass the right messages to the people and at the same time pray, so that we can change the situation for good. If we allow terrorism to get deep and rooted, it may snowball into affecting other parts of Nigeria. Besides people are dying every day. So, there is need to bring people who have the capacity to bring Nigeria out of its present situation.”  Also, describing Muoka as an embodiment of humility and a distinguished personality in whom radiates all known and unknown qualities of a true leader, Mustapha said the essence of any leadership in life rests on the provision of hope to the people when their confidence is lost and provision of confidence when the people no longer have hope anywhere. ‘The Lord’s Chosen Ministries has an anchorman of such”. On the security implications in Nigeria, Al-Mustapha posited that if his book ‘Conflict Resolution and Peace Building in Nigeria,’ written since 2009 was used by the government, Nigeria would not have been experiencing the present problems. “I think, we have ignored the problem that is why we are in this present situation.” He noted that life is not measured by the amount of money, cars or houses one has, but the number of lives affected positively. ‘Life is not measured by the riches in your pocket nor the number of houses, castles or palaces that you have and not from the power that you have but it is measured from the point of view of people appreciating and smiling when they see you and when they hear of you, The Lord Chosen General Overseer, Pastor Lazarus Muoka is one. I see in him humility, simplicity, wisdom, responsibility cheerfulness, kindness and of courses faith and wisdom. “ Speaking further, Mustapha hinted that in kindness and wisdom, when in 2009, he was being persecuted and kept for 15 years, going through torture, Muoka made intercessory prayers on his behalf till he got freedom.  ‘In the mid-way of my persecution, the distinguished religious leader sent people to pray for me. He was also praying for me without minding the leadership that was persecuting me. And, as I was going through the travails, through the kindness and wisdom with which he showed concern to me, I saw a lot of things and eventually, God almighty granted me freedom."
