DEMOLITION OF AKACHI TOWER AT NIGHT: A REBELLION AGAINST GOD BY THOSE WHO CANNOT REST UNTIL EVIL THRIVES IN THE LAND

Upon assumption of office on May 29, 2019 as Governor of Imo state in a highly controversial manner that is expected to be resolved by the Court, the first official task embarked by Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha's administration barely 24 hours after inauguration and one week of being commissioned by the Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, was the demolition of AKACHI Tower, a colossal spiralling conical artifact of over 40 feet with a spiral ramp that Rochas Okorocha administration also left behind, VAM reports.

Akachi Tower

In a statement made available to VAM by Michael Anyanwu, Due to the spiral architectural design of this landmark edifice built on a reclaimed dumpsite that was abandoned by previous administrations, the structure can be climbed by going round it; while those who get up there can enjoy breathtaking pleasurable aerial view of the city of Owerri.

Apart from serving as one of the tourist attractions in the state which bequeaths serious economic value on it, the gigantic tower with a golden hand sculpture on the Zenith, symbolising the hand of God over the state, sits on an expansive plot of land, reserved for religious purposes as even Books of the Bible are inscribed on its walls.

When they had wanted to bring down the tower the first time, the general backlashes and criticisms by the people of the state condemning the action which they found repulsive considering the fact that it was built with public funds compelled them to flee the site but not without doing irredeemable damages to the foundational base of the structure and demolishing some parts of it.

Obviously not satisfied that they could not completely demolish the tower earlier, they resorted to secret cutting of the gigantic structure bit-by-bit especially at night until they completely pulldown what they had left of the edifice after their initial attempt to totally destroy it.

However, it is yet to be understood why the Ihedioha’s government is not comfortable with the tower since he assumed office as governor and this brings us to the pertinent questions which remain largely unanswered. What exactly could be responsible for the desperation exhibited by Gov. Emeka Ihedioha’s administration on destroying Akachi Tower with all the biblical verses and arts around it?

Why being so resolute and hellbent on pulling down the beautiful edifice built with public fund with the purpose of serving touristic, economic and religious benefits to the state?

The truth is that no occultist or man who has sold his soul to the devil will allow a religious artifact with biblical verses and arts inscribed all over it to stand. It is not possible unless such man is delivered of demonic possession.

Looking at their antecedents for the 12years they were in power in the state before Imo people rejected them in 2011 through the polls and brought in Sen. Rochas Okorocha as governor to liberate the state, I believe you would not want to recall that ugly memory of the gory era of incessant ritual and political killings. But an understanding of this fact will help you appreciate the reason for the desperation they are exhibiting to have the Akachi Tower off their sight.

The imaginative claim by them that Akachi is a shrine with diabolic or occultism representation not only reveals them as people battling with guilty conscience but also exposes their iniquitous hearts. Psalms 73:7 made this clear that "from their callous hearts come iniquity; their evil imagination have no limits". And for such people, Proverbs 4:16 said "they cannot rest until they do evil" and John 3:20 revealed that "everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed".

They cannot allow Akachi stand in the state because it symbolizes the hand of God and 1John 1:5 made it clear that "...God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all". It follows, therefore, that they have a good understand that light and darkness can never co-exist but ultimately darkness will always bow to the superiority of the existence of light. Even the bible reassured in John 1:5 that “the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it”.

You can now understand why Gov. Ihedioha's administration has become so restless having the Akachi Tower in place in the state. The same explanation goes to why they abandoned operating from the Government House for fear of the presence of the VICTORY CHAPEL built there and dedicated to God Almighty by Okorocha's administration.

Even if without conceding that Akachi Tower is a shrine, should he not have engaged powerful clergymen of God to pray and defuse whatever demonic powers considering the fact that there are no powers superior to that of God Almighty?

If we must tell ourselves the truth, we need not be told that some dark minds that cannot rest until evil thrives in the land have taken over the helm of affairs of our dear state and are becoming rebellious against God our creator in whose hands Sen. Rochas Okorocha placed the state when he was governor.

In their desperation to demolish Akachi completely, Gov. Emeka Ihedioha needs to know that in the book of 1 Samuel 15:23, it is written that for rebellion is like sin of divination, and arrogance like evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He has rejected you as king (Governor).
