JUST IN: Spiritual Leader Urges Nigerians to Return to God’s Laws, Says Repentance Key to National Renewal
By OGB Joseph, Abuja
An international spiritual leader, Brother Cyprian Ukachukwu, has called on Nigerians, particularly political leaders, to embrace repentance and strict obedience to God’s laws, describing spiritual reawakening as the pathway to solving the nation’s persistent socio-economic and governance challenges.
In a statement made available to journalists, Ukachukwu said the message was revealed to him by Angel Gabriel in 2024 but was only released in 2026 after what he described as a period of prayerful reflection and divine instruction.
He argued that many of Nigeria’s present-day problems have deep historical roots dating back to the colonial era between 1914 and 1960 under Lord Frederick Lugard’s administration. According to him, governance practices introduced during that period departed from divine principles and laid the foundation for corruption, abuse of public office and moral decline.
The spiritual leader alleged that the nation’s political and economic elite inherited a system that encouraged the misappropriation of public resources, adding that proceeds from corruption have allegedly been used to finance crimes such as drug trafficking, violence and document forgery.
He further claimed that some foreign countries aid the concealment of illicit wealth in overseas financial institutions, making it difficult for stolen public funds to be recovered.
Ukachukwu also expressed concern over what he described as the distortion of Christian teachings by early European missionaries, alleging that the complete message of the Bible was not fully communicated to Nigerians.
He called on Christians to return to biblical teachings, particularly the observance of the Sabbath on Saturday as prescribed in Exodus 20:8-11, while urging believers to study and practice God’s commandments faithfully.
Citing several biblical passages, including Matthew 5, Exodus 20, Deuteronomy 5, John 20 and Matthew 28, he maintained that authentic gospel ministry requires spiritual ordination, discipline and consistent obedience to God’s commandments.
According to him, both Christians and Muslims should focus on genuine obedience to the core teachings of their respective faiths rather than mere attendance at churches and mosques.
Ukachukwu also compared Nigeria’s anti-corruption efforts with those of countries such as the United States, Saudi Arabia and India, which he said impose stringent penalties for corruption and drug-related offences. He lamented that corruption and related crimes have become widespread in Nigeria over the decades.
The spiritual leader warned that individuals involved in corruption, bloodshed, drug trafficking and forgery could not claim to be true adherents of either Christianity or Islam.
He further claimed that God has granted Nigerians a two-year period to repent and turn away from wrongdoing, warning of consequences for continued disobedience.
Ukachukwu concluded by urging present and future leaders to regard public office as a sacred responsibility dedicated to service rather than personal enrichment.
He stressed that Nigeria’s renewal, peace and prosperity would only be achieved through righteousness, justice and collective obedience to God’s laws, calling on citizens to embrace moral values capable of attracting divine mercy and national transformation.
