Nigeria Is Under A Demonic Spell And Witchcraft – Pastor Enenche Laments

Published

on

Enenche claimed that the nation is under an evil spell amid the economic hardship ravaging the country.

Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Dr. Paul Enenche has revealed the problem of Nigeria.

According to him, the country is under a demonic spell and witchcraft.

He said that’s the reason why the people have continued to tolerate suffering and hardship.

“There’s a blanket of sorcery and darkness over this nation; an evil spell making people tolerate what should provoke outrage,” he wrote.

In a post on his official X account on Thursday, the cleric highlighted the economic struggles faced by many Nigerians, noting that increasing numbers of church members now line up after services not for spiritual counseling or prayer, but for basic needs such as rent, school fees, food and medical bills.

“People are suffering. Pastors are drained. Members now queue after service not for prayer, but for help,” he lamented.

He also criticized political leaders for what he described as their insensitivity and failure to address the dire situation across the country.

“Yet, the leaders act as though nothing is wrong. This is not normal. It is witchcraft. A spell of patience in captivity. A demonic tolerance of suffering.”

Calling for divine intervention, Enenche declared: “Let every evil spell over this land be broken! Let those misruling with arrogance and mocking the people’s pain face divine judgment. They shall not see the celebration of their wickedness.”
