Another area where I think many of us have been silent in Africa is the area of religion.
Many things have gone wrong, yet we remain silent. Jesus is a commodity that is now selling fast in Africa, and everyone wants to have their own shop. Everyone must open their own business center (church) and brand it in a way that will be attractive to the customers (members).
I know that, as Africans, we are a spiritual people. I’ve discussed that many times on my blog. But here is what you must understand: religion in Africa has now become a business, and it has been grossly abused!
Abuse of anything is not good. Water, as important as it is to our body (making up more than 60% of our body weight), if abused, can take your life. Even food and air can do likewise. So, balance must be maintained in everything.
In Africa, because of greed and the bad economy, many of our people have ventured into the business of religion, taking advantage of the bad leadership and poverty in the land. They give false prophecies, swindle people, and coerce them into giving money in the name of God.
Now, the name of God is a good bait to swindle and manipulate people. And of course, because many people are gullible and don’t know the truth, they fall into the trap of these wolves, who get rich at their expense. They milk them dry and leave them empty, plunging them further into poverty.
This is a major menace in our society, and it must be quickly eradicated before it gets out of hand.

Some people would say, “Don’t judge the pastors. Don’t castigate anyone.” But this is foolishness. How can a responsible leader avoid accountability and transparency? They want to use God to cover everything up while they feed on their members to become rich.
I don’t know why it’s only pastors and G.O.s who are receiving God’s blessings in Africa. I don’t know why they are the only ones buying expensive cars and private jets.

If God is truly God, why is He so partial in blessing people? Why can’t He bless everyone?
Oh, someone might say, “Because pastors are more anointed,” or “Because they have more faith.” That must be a fallacy!
The last time I checked, God didn’t bless people based on who is more anointed or has more faith. The richest man in the world is not the most anointed. Everyone who comes to the Lord receives miracles through their gift of faith, which everyone has received.

So, there is no special form of faith that one must have before they can receive blessings from the Lord. In fact, everyone is already blessed.
This is just another manipulative strategy to deceive people and make them believe that God blesses some people more than others, making God appear partial or discriminatory.
The truth is that the religious industry in Africa has become corrupt. It has become an element of shame and reproach.

It would be bad enough if these wolves were not feeding on their prey. But no, they go ahead and collect the little their members have, still promising them that God will bless them. I don’t know why it’s taking God centuries to bless people.
Africa must wake up from this stupidity. This is a pure scam!
We must reject the false messages that many religious leaders are selling to us. While they are getting rich and fat, the members are getting poorer and hungrier. This will not work, and it is unsustainable.
This is not the church that the Apostles started. It is not the church that our Lord Jesus Christ ordained. This is the church of mammon and demon. It is the church of selfishness and greed.

I tell the pastors and G.O.s to stop this evil, or else they will be judged!
I see Africa getting liberated from the shackles of religion and spiritual slavery.
