Group Attacks Adefarasin Over ‘Plan B’ Comment

 

Group attacks Adefarasin
OpenLife Nigeria reports that the unending security crisis in Nigeria is widening the gulf of unity and expanding the scope of analysis across available medium.
In some important respects, citizens have to disagree with government officials and newspaper columnists on solutions to the menace.
Some security experts, politicians, and ethnic groups have raised fears that the country might be going the path of another crisis.

So bad is the situation that the Presidency recently raised the alarm over attempts and plans to overthrow the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

From high level electronic media studios to streets and beer parlour conversations, the storyline has been the same: Solution.
So it was last Sunday when Senior Pastor of the House on the Rock Church, Lagos, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, urged members of his church to have an alternative plan for Nigeria as a result of rising insecurity in different parts of the country.
“No country in the world history has survived two civil wars,” Adefarasin said, relating to Nigeria’s first civil war between July 1967 and 1970.
The pastor disclosed that his wife (Pastor Ifeanyi) is currently out of Nigeria helping to create their own plan B – an alternative plan to relocate from Nigeria in the case of an eventuality.
“I bring you greetings from Pastor Ifeanyi who is busy taking care of the frontier of our world and preparing our escape route,” Adefarasin said. “If you don’t have a plan B – I know you have faith, but I have faith too but I have a plan B.”
Adefarasin added, “With technology, I can speak to you from anywhere in the world” and urged members of the congregation to “get yourself a plan B.”
“Whether that’s an Okada to Cameroon or flying boat or speed boat as we call them to Seme Border or a hole in the ground, get your plan B because these people are crazy. They ate nutters. The whole bunch of them. And watch the signs because it can happen like this. God forbid!.”
“You could be in fright and running for your dear life any day from now if this thing does not come to an end,” Adefarasin said.
But in a reaction, a group known as Movement for a Better Nigeria, MBN, disagreed with the Pastor saying he represents the finest element of anti Nigeria.
The group pointed out that Adefarasin should reconsider his position and reconcile same with his calling which ought to be positive than negative.
They quarried Adefarasin on the basis of his fate and belief in Nigeria saying if all he can offer is to promote exodus rather than solution, he should be ashamed of himself.
In a statement signed by the president of the association, Architect Bala Rufai and made available to OpenLife, the group stated that what Nigeria currently needs is co operation and consistent dialogue in search of solution saying this phase “Would pass away sooner than expected.”
“This is the problem with some of these men of God who live flamboyant life and make uninspiring statements. Adefarasin has amassed so much money and probably has houses in choice places around the world to run to. But some of us do not have a place to run. Is he saying God cannot solve the problem of insecurity in Nigeria?
“What kind of message is Adefarasin sending to investors and tourists? How does his statement portray Nigeria as a country that can manage its internal crises? Will Adefarasin tell couples in his church who are having challenges to divorce and seek solutions in abode of another couple?
“The country Adefarasin plans to relocate was built and made safe by men like him who may not even have his level of academic qualification. Is relocating out of Nigeria the solution?
“Every country has its challenges. The countries Adefarasin wants Nigerians to relocate are battling with pandemic. Would that not be a case of flying pan to fire? What happens to consistent supplications to God for solution as a man of God?” MBN asked.
Born on 25 January 1963, Paul Adefarasin, a Christian minister and televangelist, has branches of his House on the Rock in Lagos, Port-Harcourt, Abuja and London.
