Why Nigeria Has Not Won War Against Boko Haram – Oritsejafor

The President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor says Nigeria has not been able to the war against Boko Haram due to pretense by some Nigerians and refusal to speak the truth.

"Nigeria is fighting against truth. We hate truth, we hide truth and we fear truth. It is so unfortunate. In John 8:32, Jesus said you shall know the truth and the truth will make you free," Oritsejafor said at the Northern States Christian Elders Forum (NOSCEF) Traditional Rulers Conference 2014, in Abuja.

"Nigeria is not free because we are running away from truth. Truth can be bitter, but when you swallow it, when it gets inside, it could become sweet.

"No nation can grow or develop without embracing the truth. No matter how difficult it is. In the same John 8:46, Jesus said, 'if what I have told you is the truth, then why do you refuse to believe me?' This is the situation of Nigerians today, we are like Ostriches, we are a nation of pretenders.

We wrote from the truth and we want to believe that somehow, our troubles will just vanish, but it never happened that way, because truth has a way of creating a level plain ground for everybody. Nigerians must face the truth, accept it, work with it, live by it, and must build a nation of truth," the CAN president said.

The National Chairman of NOSCEF, Mr. Olaiya Philips, also said the activities of the Boko Haram insurgence in the North-East as an inferno engulfing the nation. He also accused politicians of not having the insterest of the common people at heart.

"In recent months, many politicians have tried to claim that one political party or another is secretly using Boko Haram for their own ends. Providing them with weapons and finance; Yet not one piece of evidence has been forthcoming," Phillips said.

"Accusations and denials have filled the newspapers, but these politicians not want to help our community. They just want our votes so that they can look after themselves. They feed on fear and gorge themselves on terror,"

The latest report divulged by the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) and   translated by WhatDoesItMean circulating in the Kremlin on Wednesday, October 15, 2014, has it that the administration of the American President Barack Obama was the brain behind the terrible incident that occurred on Friday, September 12, 2014.

11 GREAT RULES THAT WILL HELP YOU REMAIN POOR ALL YOUR LIFE (PART 2)

6. Complain about everything except your own attitude: Blame the system, the government and the banks that refuse to lend you money. They are all bad and do not want you to get rich. 7. Spend more than you earn: To achieve this, buy consumer products in credit and keep borrowing from friends and employer. 8. Compete in dressing: Make sure you wear the latest clothes among all the workers in your office. Whenever your neighbor buys a new phone, get one that is more expensive. 9. Get yourself a nice second- hand car that costs more than three times your gross monthly pay: That will surely keep you in debt long enough to hinder the implementation of any bad plans that could make you accumulate capital. 10. Give your children everything they ask for since you are such a loving parent and they should not struggle for anything because you do not want them to suffer. That way, they will grow up lazy and hence too poor to add value to the community. 11. Ignore God After all He's A Spirit a
