CRUSADE TO CLOSE DOWN BEER PARLOURS KICKS OFF IN LAGOS

A crusade to shut down beer parlours, reduce crime and depopulate the kingdom of darkness in Ogba area of Lagos, western Nigeria, is underway, Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, MFM, said at a press conference on Sunday.
“We want to close down beer parlours in Ogba environment. We want to convert beer parlours into our praying centres,” said Pastor Aderemi Oseni, the Regional Overseer of MFM Region 32 Ogba, Lagos, who addressed journalists in his church.
“At the end of this crusade, the kingdom of Satan would have been completely depopulated, ” he said, adding that the crusade will take place between 19 and 21 December at MFM Regional Headquarters at 9, Ajayi Road, Ogba.
Sensitization campaigns have already begun and a march around Ogba area took place on Sunday.
Oseni said crime had skyrocketed in Nigeria and MFM was ready to assist the government in reducing it in Ogba area.
“We are worried about the extent of crime going on in Nigeria presently and we desire as a church of God to see as much as we can in assisting the government of this country in reducing crime in our own environment,” Oseni said, adding that crime can be reduced through evangelism.
Oseni said it was an open secret that major streets in Ogba have been converted into shrines.
“I am aware of the fact that powers of darkness have converted all our major roads to shrines in this environment. We want to pull down all these (shrines),” he said, adding that they are militating against the progress of mankind.
The theme of the crusade, overcoming the storm, was inspired from Mark 4: 19 and aims at helping Nigerians overcome their personal storms or challenges, Oseni said.
“This environment is loaded with a lot of potentials but majority of the potentials are going through a lot of storm,” he said, adding that after the crusade the “whole of Ogba will be delivered from every storm.”
The last crusade took place in June this year and the first one was held in December last year.
Oseni said what makes this crusade unique is the array of pastors who have gathered for the purpose and the areas of focus it will address.
Women are not, however, allowed to wear trousers for the crusade, Oseni said, explaining that it was against the scriptures for women to dress like men.
Oseni said safety and security measures have been put in place and anti-bomb detector devices have been provided for the crusade.
Enough policemen and internal security personnel have also been called upon for the event, he said.
