Football icon and leading Liberia’s presidential candidate,
George Weah, on Sunday visited the Synagogue Church of All Nations in Ikotun,
Lagos, to seek the support of Prophet TB Joshua, in his bid to lead Liberia.
Weah will
face Joseph Boakai, the incumbent vice-president, in a runoff slated for
November 7.
Yormie
Johnson, a former Liberian warlord, and one of the 20 candidates who
participated in the first round of the election, accompanied Weah to the
church.
Speaking on
Weah’s visit during the Sunday service, Prophet Joshua stated: “My brother is
here today because he loves his country and wants God’s choice for his
country.”
“He is not
here to impose himself. What does God say about his country, Liberia? What is
God’s opinion? That is why he is here.
“We are not
herbalists or witch-doctors; we are people of God. God’s choice is our choice.
We cannot pray against God’s will.
“Without
God’s corresponding power, we cannot pray to Him. For every step we take –
every movement and action – intimation comes first.
“There must
be suggestion from the Spirit to move before we move. If truly I am a man of
God, I must hear from God – move or don’t move.
“God’s
opinion is what we should seek in our country – simple! God is the Answer, the
Final.”
Among the
top politicians on the continent who have visited Joshua’s church are
Tanzania’s President, John Magufuli; John Atta Mills, the late president of
Ghana; Joyce Banda, former president of Malawi; Morgan Tsvangarai, Zimbabwean
prime minister and Julius Malema, South African opposition leader.
