OBJ is talking about the kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God that is far fetched. Nigeria is hell on earth. It is like a saucer spinning towards the same direction. A time about to explode. Majority of Nigerians are not happy. They never been happy because the government don't care.
@SolidIroko stated:
See pastor/prophet Obasanjo. Have you even apologized, in repentance to those you killed in the Civil War & for Nigerian public funds you stole? It's like you think that the kingdom of God, is like your cele-church you can enter at will?"
@AZUKAEMMANUEL3 added:
"You know, at certain age in life one starts seeing issues from a different perspective & also sees the need to be more sincere with himself. At that point you come to realize that all the rat race to amass wealth is vanity. EX-President Obasanjo is now at that point."
