Adewale Giwa, senior pastor of the ministry Awaiting The Second Coming Of Christ, has stated that Nigerians should use the country’s ongoing fuel crisis as a wake-up call to vote out the All Progressives Congress-led government out in the general elections of 2023.
The preacher stated during a sermon in Akure, the capital of Ondo State, that given the precarious situation Nigeria is in, individuals with the correct mindset should be able to decide what decisions to make regarding power in 2023.
Giwa criticized the electorate, saying that because they had been duped by corrupt politicians who seemed to be angels during the 2015 election, they had not allowed God to choose their leaders.
Using the prevailing fuel scarcity to buttress his sermon, he said: “In less than 25 days to the end of 2022, fuel scarcity is biting harder, hitting major Nigerian cities, especially Abuja and Lagos.
“More worrisome is that the Nigerian government and fuel marketers have offered varying narratives for the prevailing fuel scarcity that has affected most states across the country for weeks without reprieve.
“While the NNPC said the queues in Lagos and Abuja are largely due to ongoing “road infrastructure projects” around Apapa and access road challenges in some parts of Lagos depots, major marketing group IPMAN insists that it was as a result of high prices imposed by fuel depot owners who help the NNPC in storing the product”.
While admonishing his congregation on the polity, he said, “please, get your PVC ready to vote out the APC without looking back. May God not allow them to take us back to Egypt again.
“Beyond voting them out, do everything possible to forestall them from getting to power again. This is a warning, and do not say I didn’t tell you.”
