Wike Will Be President Some Day -Cleric …Church To Open New Satellite Parish

The Senior Prophet and General Overseer of Dynamic Flame of Fire and Miracle Ministries in Woji Community, Port Harcourt, Prophet U. O. Miracle, says the Governor of Rivers State, Chief Nyesom Wike will some day be the President of Nigeria. This is even as the church has set machinery in motion to open its new mega satellite parish in Rumuodomaya Community in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, slated for Sunday, September 4, 2022.
Prophet Miracle, who gave the indication while preaching the sermon during Sunday’s service in Port Harcourt, centered on, ‘You Are A New Creature’, said Wike will surely rule Nigeria as President in future, going by his good works, boldness and doggedness, and confidently told the congregation to mark his words.
He further noted that he loves Governor Wike for his boldness and penchant to speak the truth, and expressed displeasure over former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi for apparently playing into the hands of Hausa/Fulani, who allegedly deceived him that they were going to support and endorse him to be President of the country.
Prophet Miracle harped on the need for leaders to carry along their people while in office. He gave the admonition against the backdrop of what befell Amaechi, who he said apparently forgot his Rivers people while he was Minister, and regretted a situation where railway lines that were serving his people had been dismantled.
The man of God also recalled that Amaechi equally fought and worked against his brother, Goodluck Jonathan, who lost the 2015 presidential election toPresident Muhammedu Buhari. He lamented the fact that Northerners and others are today enjoying modern rail transportation while Amaechi’s people are deprived.
To buttress his point that leaders should always carry along their people while in office, Prophet Miracle cited the case of Buhari, who positioned his Hausa/Fulani people in virtually all critical sectors of the economy.
The man of God, who is well known for the miracles performed by his church, regretted that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is doing nothing, even as a Pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), while Fulani herdsmen and Muslim bandits are killing Christians in the country.
Prophet Miracle, who anchored his message on sacrifice, stressed the need for sacrificial offerings by Christians, to actually open the doors of miracles and prosperity for them, and listed Noah, King Solomon and King of Edom in the Bible as people who provoked God’s quick response through their sacrificial gestures.
He said the opening of the church’s satellite parish on September 4, 2022 will be preceded by rallies, beginning from today at Rumuokoro and Rumuodomaya communities, and hinted that the church was poised to take Rumuodomaya by storm with earth-shaking miracles on Sunday, September 4.
In Dynamic Flame of Fire and Miracle Ministries, the lame walk, the sick are healed; the blind see; the afflicted are delivered, demons are destroyed; and the barren become pregnant.

A Maritime Security Expert, Captain Ifeanyi Eke Lawrence, has called for the training of youths as marine Safety officers in order to improve  and regulate safety among boat operators and passengers.
 He said the  programme, if carried out, will create jobs for the teeming unemployed youths in the state and drastically reduce the rate of death and loss of properties along the state’s water ways.
According to him, Rivers inland waterways can create over 50,000 direct and indirect jobs if properly harnessed.
Lawrence said the timely training of youths and positively engaging them as safety officers on all the jetties where waterborne transportation system is  operated  was necessary to solve the state’s unemployment challenge and end incessant boat mishap in the State.
The Expert, who is the Chairman, El-Bravo Maritime Safety Training Services Limited, said this in an interview with newsmen shortly after their monthly safety exercise in Port Harcourt.
He said the Government can do this through educating reasonable number of youths who will carry the responsibility of educating boat operators and regulate safety on all the jetties and state’s waterways, adding that the improvement in safety along the state’s waterways will restore the confidence of boat passengers and speed boat operators who operate along the state’s waterways.
According to him, the situation will check incessant boat mishaps which result to loss of lives and goods worth millions whenever there’s a boat accident, hence the need to save lives and property along the state’s inland waterways.
Captain Lawrence said Government can also achieve this feat through constant engagement and training of youths on Maritime safety in the state.
“Governor Fubara needs to critically tackle the dangerous threat of boat mishaps and unemployment rate among Rivers  youths  whose population is on  the Increase
“Rivers State inland waterways have the capacity to create over 50,000 direct and indirect Jobs for the ciitizens if properly and professionally harnessed.
“This can be achieved through training and constant engagement and monitoring of the boat operators all over the State”, he said.
Lawrence continued that the state stands to benefit maximally from its God-given maritime potentials if properly harnessed.
“Rivers State with its enormous God-given natural resources, especially the  amazing creeks, channels, rivers , lagoons  and others, should be able to harness and  tap from it to benefit the people.
“Rivers State is the second largest maritime environment in Nigeria after Lagos State, and has the largest fishing Community in West Africa at Oyorokorto, in Andoni LGA of the state.
“The community environment is a tourist site of international reputes that needs to be developed by the State Government.
“There are several tourist sites along the State’s waterways, but tourist are skeptical to visit them for their relaxation due to lack of state safety organs, to educate, regulate and enforce safety on boat drivers, passengers and everyone who does business on the state’s maritime environment.
“I’m calling on Governor Fubara to use his executive mandate and create a State civil maritime unit and sanitize all the jetties and the entire waterways.
“It’s necessary as 80 percent of Rivers people earn their living from the jetties, channels, rivers, creeks and lagoons that surround them.
“The major means of transportation in Rivers State is Waterborne transportation system, therefore it’s pertinent the State Government act as a matter of urgency, make hay while the sun shines”, he advised.
He also decried the incessant boat mishaps and loss of lives and property along waterways in the state.

The Oxfam Programme Manager for Accountable Governance in Nigeria, Mr Henry Ushe, made the call at a two-day workshop organised by the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Center (CISLAC), with the support of Oxfam in Port Harcourt.
The Tide’s source recalls that some developed countries had pledged $100 billion annually to support the low and middle income countries in their climate action efforts.
Oxfam said the actual amount already delivered was low with much of the finance provided as loans which aggravating debt burdens in vulnerable countries.
Ushe, however, stated that Nigeria had developed the gas master plan following its commitment to COP27 to transit energy to net zero by 2060 and to the Paris agreement of accelerating climate action.
He explained that Nigeria had also passed the Climate Justice Act and established its secretariat to work with CSOs and other stakeholders to ensure the total implementation of the policy framework.
“But what we haven’t seen since then is the financial commitment to be able to drive through with all of this policy; what we need is the financing of all these plans”, he said.
He said that was why they were calling on those who made financial pledges at COP27 to redeem them, ‘’while we hold our government to account, ensuring that the support is used judiciously.
“We are very optimistic about the safe transition because the country has put in place all the mechanism that is needed, including a very robust gas master plan”.
In his remarks, the Head, Community, Environmental Legal Desk of Natural Justice in Nigeria, Mr. Lawrence Dube, urged the regulatory agencies to structure and enforce global energy security.

Udoh urged government to accelerate gas infrastructure development, invest in pipeline networks, processing plants and storage facilities to improve market access.
He recommended that there should be expansion of virtual gas pipelines like the CNG and LNG trucking system to reach under served areas.
He called for the strengthening of partnership within the West Africa Gas Pipeline (WAGP) to enhance regional energy security among others.
