While addressing mass at Saint Vincent De Paul Catholic Church in Port Hacourt on Christmas Day, Rivers State Governor and Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum, Rotimi Amaechi, urged people to ignore claims that some politicians installed him as the governor of the state.
He stated clearly, that he was installed by Jesus Christ, because he fasted and prayed for 10 months before he became the governor.
Amaechi said: “As a government led by me, a government installed by Christ, if anybody tells you he installed me, tell him it is a lie. Tell him that I said I prayed for 10 months and I fasted from 6am to 6pm, calling on Christ to come down and Christ came down mightily and installed me as governor.
“That is why you can see that in the face of human effontery, I have been able to stand face to face with them and I say I have Christ in me.
“You must rise in that same spirit of having Christ in you and confront those who are confronting you. You must stand up for Christ because the Bible says ‘faith without work is dead.’
“We must not die. We must live and the way to live is to celebrate Christ and the way to celebrate Christ is to confront Satan and Satan is in different forms and shapes.
“If the police shoot at you, they are satanic. If government denies you your right to live, that government is satanic.”

Amaechi talks more like a tout than a governor.

The Church of God are also in a mess. They allowed those people who only know God by his name without any personal relationship to stand at the altar and make unrefined comments about Jesus. His behavior contradicts what he preach. Amaechi needs total revival in his life.
