American independent charismatic prophetess, speaker, author and co-founder of Generals International, Cindy Jacobs, has declared that God has positioned the Governor of Abia <\/a>State, His Excellency, Dr. Alex <\/a>Otti, OFR, to become a model in leadership and governance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cindy Jacobs made the revelation on Saturday, May 2, during the National Thanksgiving Worship Service at The Father\u2019s House Church, Jahi \u2013 Abuja, as Governor Otti honoured the invitation of organisers of the programme.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mrs Jacobs, who is visiting Nigeria 23 years after her last visit alongside her husband, Mike Jacobs, said she saw massive road construction projects spreading across the State, connecting villages and enabling farmers to move their produce easily to their prospective customers. She also revealed that she saw God supplying the finances needed to make the projects possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

In her words, \u201cGod is going to begin to give you finance for infrastructure. I see literary supernatural finances that will enable farms to market produce to come.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI see roads being built from the villages to the places where they need to sell their produce. I don\u2019t know anything about where you are, but I just see God wants you to be a model.<\/span><\/p>\n

She further declared that Governor Otti would introduce transformative policies that would make Abia <\/a>the most educated State in the region, lifting many citizens out of poverty through education.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGod wants you to be a prototype of what can be done in the region when God is exalted.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd, the Lord also showed me that you\u2019re going to be able to put some policies in place that are going to begin to literally cause your area, your State, to be known as one of the most educated States. And I see you building schools and getting that as a legacy for you, building schools and teachers education in particular.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so, God is going to help you, of course, raise those out of poverty, and education will take them out of poverty. And God is going to do this,\u201d she revealed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Responding, Governor Otti informed the Gospel Minister from the USA, Cindy Jacobs, that since assuming office, his administration has consistently allocated 35 percent of the State\u2019s annual budget to education and healthcare, with education receiving 20 percent and health 15 percent. He noted that the prophet was \u201cspeaking in the spirit,\u201d and further disclosed that his administration has hired and on-boarded 5394 teachers in the first batch of the teachers recruitment exercise and is in the process of hiring additional 4000 teachers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The State Chief Executive also informed the prophetess that before the end of this month, 3 New smart schools built by his administration would be commissioned.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd before the end of this month, we are commissioning three brand new smart schools we built,\u201d Gov. Otti added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Addressing the congregation, Governor Otti stressed the need for Christians to live according to what they preach, especially leaders, saying that leadership is an opportunity to serve. He emphasized that people are more interested in what leaders and believers do than in what they merely say.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Governor maintained that while fasting and prayers are important, righteousness exalts a nation, as stated in the Bible, stressing that doing what is wrong cancels prayers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The National Thanksgiving Worship Service, currently ongoing at The Father\u2019s House, is an interdenominational gathering organized to offer intercessory prayers for Nigeria, especially for an end to the killings and bloodshed in some parts of the country, caused by terrorists and bandits. The programme also seeks divine healing for the land from the desecration and defilement of bloodshed, and for Nigeria to maximize her potential and become a great nation.<\/span><\/p>\n

The event attracted many anointed men and women of God from different parts of the World, with Mrs Cindy Jacobs serving as the lead guest preacher.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nigeria\u2019s former Minister of Education, Economic Policy Expert and Activist, Oby Ezekwesili and her husband, Pastor Chinedu Ezekwesili, who were among the organizers of the programme, described Governor Otti as a shinning light in governance in Nigeria.<\/span><\/p>\n
