On The Eternal Crusade of Liberation and The Horrors of Secularism
When I was first granted power in Nigeria, by the grace of God and guns, I had one goal: the liberation of good Christians from oppression. In Nigerias case in 2020, that oppression was coming from the Muslim, who was oppressing the Lords children through terror and the threat of violence. I launched the First Crusade of Liberation too free the good Christians of Nigeria from this oppression. Now the Christians in Nigeria can live free lives, free to worship the Lord as I see fit. When I had unified Nigeria, I saw that ours was not the only nation in which good Christians were oppressed. Christians in Benin were also suffering under the yokes of the Muslim and the pagan. Thus, in 2027, after much prayer and reflection, I initiated the Second Crusade of Liberation to free Benins Christians. Once they had been liberated, I noticed that in Togo Christians also suffered from Muslim and Pagan oppression. Once again with the Lords guidance, I called on all good Nigerians to aid me in the Third Crusade of Liberation to free Togo in 2028. Another resounding success brought freedom and truth to Togo. I was happy, for now I could bring Enlightenment to the Beninese and Togolese. Christians there were sincere Christians, to be sure, but they erred in their beliefs!
I rectified this, bringing these lost children of Christ under the caring wings of the Nigerian National Church. I also attempted to bring the Muslims and Pagans in these nations into the fold, or sent them to be judged by the Lord, for the Lord said judge not lest ye be judged; the final judgment could not be mine, so I left it to the Lord to decide which circle of Hell these heathens ought to be cast to. Now, some may say, I stand triumphant and victorious, but I say first that every victory I have had has only been possible through the Lord, through which all things are possible. Secondly, I have not yet triumphed, for Christians everywhere still suffer from oppression. Even in Ghana, a nation in which most men are Christians, they suffer, both from the errors in their beliefs, and from oppression that is at least the equal of Muslim and Pagan rule: the oppression of Secularism. The secularists in Ghana prevent the good Christians there from being able to live out the Word and Truth of Our Lord as they should be able to. I condemn this, and refuse to let this stand! I grieve, for I have come to realize that the Crusades of Liberation may never end, for Christians are oppressed almost everywhere, though there are a select few nations which manage serve their Christians in good faith. I will dedicate the rest of my life to the Crusades of Liberation, and I know, brothers and sisters, that all of my fellow Nigerians will fight with equal fervor and zealotry to help me to bring Christs mercy and love to the world!
