You Moved Your Family To A Country That Was Not Built On Prayers But Told Our Youth Not To Look Up To These Countries — VDM Reacts As Pastor Arome And Wife Secure Permanent Residence In US

Activist VDM has reacted to a video showing Pastor Arome Osayi and his wife announcing their permanent residence in the United States, questioning the development in relation to the pastor’s teachings about Nigeria’s national calling.

Reacting to the video, VDM recalled Pastor Arome saying, “So the next time you see someone showing what the Chinese are doing, that they are making engine, and then showing what the Nigerians are doing, we are praying, you don’t understand that nations have callings. Our calling as a nation is revival.”

VDM further recalled the pastor saying that when people point out that China is building machines while Nigeria is praying, “people don’t know that Nigeria had a calling and their calling is revival.”

He then said, “Therefore you are conditioning the minds of the youth in Nigeria that they should forget about creativity and innovation and they should rely on prayers, meanwhile you have now carried your family and taken them to America that was not built with prayer and certain calling of revival. That was built with technology and brains and doing, not relying on prayers.”

VDM questioned why the development was publicly announced, adding that the pastor also said he had prayed about it.

He continued, “You moved your family to a country that is not built with prayers, that the youths were encouraged to think outside the box. Geniuses later came. Facebook, the founder of Facebook is in the United States. Bezos is there. Elon is there. One billionaire there are 20 to 30 from that place. And these people are not prayer warriors. These people are inventors and innovators.”

He concluded by criticising what he described as the message being passed to Nigerian youths: “But they are telling the youth of Nigeria that they should not look at China, that China is building machines. They should forget China and they should rely on prayers.”
