NIGERIA'S KORAHS, DATHANS, AND ABIRAMS WILL PERISH, SAY'S THE LORD OF HOST!

[IN COMMEMORATION OF NIGERIA'S 56TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY]

Korah, Dathan and Abiram were real Jewish characters of the Old Testament Bible times who conspired to truncate God's plan of piloting the Israelites through a vast wilderness expanse of land after rescuing them from over 400 years of servitude in Egypt, into a land flowing with milk and honey, under the leadership of Prophets Moses and Aaron! They challenged the authority of the duo and claimed that they were better endowed to lead the over 1.2 million liberated people to the Promised Land and went ahead to recruit 250 accomplices to support their inordinate ambition. Nigeria is presently contending with renegades who could be aptly described as Korahs, Dathans and Abirams as it celebrates 56 years as an independent nation, in the form of a disorganized opposition party members who had neither recovered from the stupor of a disgraceful defeat at the 2015 polls, nor the shame of wallowing in the mire of their failed boastings of ruling the nation forever!
Their main strategy was to create a furore within the anointed ruling Party of President  Muhamadu Buhari and his Vice, Professor 'Yemi Osinbajo, through rumours that would pitch long-time compatriots against themselves in an imaginary power tussle that would eventually destroy long-time friendship and by extension crumble the Party structure! These, renegade egotists have forgotten that they were under God's surveillance and sovereign control which limited their moral independence to strategize or take decision against divine verdict which could  neither be contested nor appealed! They were unmindful to commit life's uncertainty into divine care but carnally proposed to ruin God's plan of deploying His divinely appointed team of Buhari and his cabinet to take Nigeria through the present economic challenges into an era of buoyancy!
The biblical expose of egotism is expressed as follows: "Today or tomorrow, we will go into such a city and continue there a year, and buy and sell and get gain. Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say if the Lord will, we shall live, and do this or that. But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil. "(James.4:13-16). Man's allegiance and loyalty MUST always be to the sovereign God who has the prerogative over life and death over all of His creation as enunciated above. Egotists unlike animals do have perfect comprehension of the existence of the living God, but deliberately decided to sideline His necessary spiritual contribution to assist their carnal weaknesses which are diametrically opposed to divine expectations from man, because they are selfish, self-centred, and excessively conceited. Man got into the world but pretended to forget his source of origin as the handiwork of the divine Potter who could make or mar him but instead pursued a desperate agenda in the rat race for transient Money and Power Game, as against God's injunction of: " BUT SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS; AND ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU"(Matthew. 6:33).

There was Divine intervention in the general elections which took place in Nigeria in April 2015 and swept out a 16-year-old very corrupt government of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which boasted of ruling the Lord's nation for at least 60 years without interruption; but to the astonishment of patriotic Nigerians, the egotist party, in spite of all court actions in respect of outright embezzlement of public funds against most of its members and the discovery of various forms of officially-aided institutional corruption , have remained unrepentant renegades who still proudly believed they would regain, power at the Federal level in 2019 through an agenda of mudslinging, acrimonies and calumnies against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Party!
PDP's agents of destabilization needed to be reminded of what happened to those who     ganged up against Moses and his Assistant, Priest Aaron, just as they have done against President  Buhari and Professor 'Yemi Oshinbajo, to chastise, intimidate, harass, persecute and discredit them before the masses of Nigerians who adore them and believe in their antecedents and pedigrees to take the nation out of  the present economic quagmire which was initially created through consecutive maladministration of previous PDP Governments! Messrs Korah, Dathan and Abiram, according, to the Book of Numbers. 16:1-50, strongly believed they could wrestle the divinely-apportioned power of leadership from God’s chosen vessels and brazenly challenged them to a worship encounter of igniting hallowed censers before the LORD, forgetting that the weapons of warfare of the duo of Moses and Aaron were: "not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to the OBEDIENCE OF GOD?" (2 Corinthians. 10:4-5).
It is instructive to quote Prophet Moses' prediction before the contest - a prediction that came to pass in the process of the audacious and baseless confrontation which camped him, Aaron and the rest of the congregation against the rebels and their 250 supporters:"And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of my own mind. "If these men die the common death of all men or if they be visited after the visitation of all men, then the LORD hath not sent me.”But if the LORD make a new thing and the earth open her mouth and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD." As Moses made and end of his speech, "the ground clave asunder that was under them. And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods. "They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them and they perished from among the congregation."(Verses 28-33)

Just like Korah, Dathan and Abiram, a group of PDP opposition party members who are very desperate to "grab power" in 2019 at all cost, and have lost all sense of decorum, decency and the fear of GOD, have ganged up to: FIRST, dismiss the incumbent government as a failure because of the current economic recession which is being addressed and is gradually picking up through diversification into other sectors of the economy, especially agriculture; SECOND, they have begun to sow seed of discord among loyal APC members in the National Assembly (NASS), because of the ongoing trial of Senators Saraki and Ekweremadu, over allegations of the Senate House Rules forgery. THIRD, as we had predicted, the grand plan of massive defection from APC to the PDP  by the MIXED MULTITUDE, which aligned to form APC before the 2015 General Elections as a convenient platform to fulfil their political ambitions, is now being hatched and orchestrated to lure faithful  members to jump ship by the desperate group who, through a campaign of calumny, have broken the ruling party into THREE FACTIONS; - BolaTinubu/Atiku camp, Saraki/PDP caucus and Oyegun/ Aregbesola camp, - which is the  only one believed to be loyal to President Muhammadu Buhari and his Vice. FOURTH, the desperate group has accused President Buhari of a Northern hidden agenda to perpetrate all forms of Islamic ideologies into the polity, in the areas of political appointments which favoured the North more than the South and also claimed that since he would not contest the 2019 Presidential Elections, he had an anointed disciple in the person of Nasir El-Rufai, whom he believed would continue to perpetrate the agenda; FIFTH, the Atiku faction has incensed Tinubu to fight dirty in the public in respect of  the  controversial primaries which threw up Barrister Akeredolu (SAN), as against Tinubu's anointed cadidate, Dr Olusegun Abraham who is ready to head for the courts to "retrieve his mandate”. This faction also deceived Asiwaju Tinubu that he had been used and dumped by Buhari whom he "single-handedly made President of Nigeria". Haba! SIXTH, the subtle interest of the inordinate ambition of former Vice President Abubakar Atiku, to become Nigeria's President in 2019 was being surreptitiously festered underground in a back-stabbing manner against President Buhari, through the same strategy which he employed in 2003 against former President Obasanjo, but failed!

It is only ONE-AND-A-HALF-YEARS into the Change Administration's tenure and the macabre scenario as enunciated above are truly on ground to destabilize the CHANGE AGENDA (NIGERIA'S ONLY GAIN IN 56 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE), because of  the inordinate ambitions of Nigeria's Korah, Dathan, Abiram and their cohorts, who should now know that the same GOD, who destroyed the enemies  of progress during the  time of Moses and Aaron in Old Testament Bible times, is still  the same GOD who controls  the affairs, seasons and times of men NOW in the 21st Century Nigeria! LET GOD ARISE AND LET HIS ENEMIES BE SWALLOWED UP INTO THE BELLY OF THE EARTH! Amen
