It’s Saturday

A good day to step outside your routine

✅ Call or meet up with someone you enjoy
✅ Take a walk, stretch, or do something active
✅ Eat something you actually like, not just what’s convenient
✅ Go somewhere different, even if it’s close by
✅ Do something fun without overthinking it

This isn’t about productivity.

It’s about feeling human again.

Because when life becomes only work and recovery,

It starts to feel mechanical.

Today, I am truly saddened.
Not because Donald Trump compared himself to Jesus Christ or insulted the Pope for speaking against the war. All of that was expected from this man.
I am saddened by the millions of Christians who have been blinded by this man’s moral depravity and have chosen to remain silent.
As the German pastor and anti-Nazi dissident Dietrich Bonhoeffer once said: “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”
Because if you step back for a moment and look honestly, Donald Trump is not simply another flawed leader. Every leader is flawed. The issue is something deeper. It is the inversion of the values that Jesus Christ taught.
Christ preached humility. Trump elevates himself.
Christ preached truth. Trump chronically spreads lies.
Christ preached love for enemies. Trump thrives on enemies and hatred.
This is not subtle. It is not ambiguous.
And yet, millions saw this and still chose to defend it. They convinced themselves that he somehow represents “Christian values.”
But what are those Christian values?
Trump is the antithesis of Jesus’ teachings. Instead of love, he promotes hatred; instead of forgiveness, vengeance; instead of meekness, ego and self-glorification. And the list goes on.
Some argue that Trump stands for Christian values by being “pro-life,” but he is not. A truly pro-life position cannot align itself with a war criminal Vladimir Putin, who is responsible for genocide against Ukrainians. But even on the traditional abortion issue, Trump’s position is not pro-life. The only thing he said is that abortion policy should be decided by individual states rather than at the federal level. That is the extent of it. When the issue was politically advantageous, he presented himself as strongly pro-life. When it became inconvenient, his stance shifted.
The warning signs were there all along.
After becoming president, Trump began portraying himself in monarchical terms, sharing images of himself wearing a crown, surrounded by gold statues, and embracing symbols of personal glorification. Yet his followers dismissed it.
“It’s just a joke,” they said.
But words shape reality. And eventually, actions followed. A pattern emerged that increasingly ignored limits, bypassed norms, and concentrated power. And still, the defense continued.
Then came something that should have been a breaking point.
Prominent religious figures, including Paula White and Franklin Graham, began drawing comparisons between Trump and Christ. That should have triggered outrage. Because for Christians, there is no higher comparison.
And yet, there was no widespread rejection. Just silence.
And now, when imagery appears depicting Trump as Christ Himself, that silence remains.
This is no longer about politics.
It is about what happens when faith is subordinated to power.
When loyalty replaces truth.
When identity replaces conviction.
When a man begins to occupy a space that belongs to God alone.
Christianity was never meant to serve power.
Are we still following Christ?
Or have we started following something else?

I will be 44 this year.

For every single one of those years, Nigeria has been in a prayer meeting.

Not metaphorically. Literally.

January fasts. Mountain vigils. Stadium crusades. Begin the Month with the Lord. Revivals that stretched through the night. Shiloh programs. 7 days, 21 days, 30 days. Denominations that disagree on everything else agree on this one thing. Nigeria needs prayer. The prayer points have been the same for four decades. Poverty. Corruption. Bad leadership. Insecurity.

I was born into this. Grew up inside it. Wore white for it. Went without food for it. Sat in those grounds. Sang those songs. Believed those promises with everything I had.

I am not writing as someone who stood outside and watched.

I am writing as someone who knelt on the same floors, waited for the same breakthrough, and is now 44 years old in the same country that was being prayed for before I took my first breath.

We are told to keep praying. That prayer is the answer. That if we cry out long enough and hard enough God will turn this nation around.

And I believe that. I have always believed that.

But I am 44. And I am still waiting for the country the prayers promised.

Because I do not believe prayer is the problem.

I believe something has been done to prayer. Something subtle. Something that has slowly converted one of the most powerful forces available to a people into a reason to stay still. Spiritual energy that could have become civic pressure became a substitute for it instead. Fervour that could have filled town halls filled altars. Voices that could have demanded accountability learned to direct every frustration upward and only upward.

And the people who benefit most from a population permanently looking to heaven are the ones with both hands in the treasury.

Prayer was never meant to replace action. It was meant to resource it. To steel the nerve. To clarify the assignment. To send the prophet out of the prayer room and into the palace with something to say.

James 2 vs 17 does not say faith is insufficient. It says faith without works is dead. Not sleeping. Not resting. Not waiting for the right season.

Dead.

Nigeria does not have a prayer problem. Nigeria has a problem with what prayer has been quietly redefined to mean.

Thread 2 coming. Because the Bible we carry into these meetings has never once shown us a prophet who prayed and then sat down.

Went to pick my children in school yesterday
It was raining heavily
My son saw the car and started running towards me
One of his friends deliberately stuck a leg out and tripped him
My son fell face first on the grass
His clothes dirty
He got up and charged at the culprit

I feel the need to address a broadcast message that has been floating around WhatsApp about my daughter Tomisin Ogunnubi. The story has a lot of inaccuracies that needs to be corrected. The story conflates many facts and presents a picture that is completely inaccurate.

It has been brought to my attention that the purported email below is in circulation with respect to my degree from @MIT

This is untrue and another failed strategy the opposition is using to divert your attention from having an issue based campaign.
