PROF. NENTAWE YILWATDA: FOUR MONTHS OF RECONCILIATION RESHAPING APC FOR 2027 VICTORY

Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda’s Reconciliatory Efforts as APC National Chairman (July–November 2025)

Since taking, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda has prioritized reconciliation, unity, and an “open-door policy” to rebuild and expand the party ahead of 2027.

He launched nationwide reconciliation drives and a “big tent” strategy that attracted massive defections from PDP and other parties.

Credited by APC League of Professionals (ALP) and grassroots groups for increased membership, higher engagement, and improved public perception (e.g., countering “APC = Boko Haram” narratives in the South-East).

Received strong endorsements, including votes of confidence from groups like the Ifediche Political Family in Enugu and praise for fostering religious coexistence and non-discrimination.

Organized or facilitated major state-level reconciliation meetings (e.g., Bayelsa in September 2025) that united factions and reaffirmed national support for state chapters.

Challenges and Criticism:

Faces resistance in his home state of Plateau, where some pro-Tinubu groups accuse him of blocking potential high-profile defections (e.g., Governor Caleb Mutfwang) and risking old grievances.

Encounters opposition attacks and isolated calls for resignation, largely dismissed by party organs as reckless or politically motivated.

Prof. Yilwatda’s efforts have strengthened party structures, boosted defections and grassroots mobilization, and aligned the APC more closely with President Tinubu’s vision of a united ruling party, despite lingering internal tensions in some zones. 

His tenure is seen as pivotal for the APC’s 2027 electoral prospects.

Kudos our own Professor Nentawe Yilwatda.

UNDERSTANDING PROPITIATION

1. WHAT IS PROPITIATION?

Propitiation means the turning away of God’s wrath through a sacrifice.

It is a theological term that describes how Jesus, through His death on the cross, satisfied the justice of God, removed the penalty of sin, and restored us to favor.

In simple terms:

Propitiation is “a sacrifice that appeases God’s righteous anger and brings reconciliation.”

2. WHY DOES PROPITIATION MATTER?

Because:

God is holy

Sin must be punished

God’s justice demands a penalty

Man cannot save himself

Propitiation shows how God can remain just and yet declare sinners righteous without compromising His holiness.

3. KEY SCRIPTURES ON PROPITIATION

a. Romans 3:25

“Whom God set forth as a propitiation through faith in His blood…”

Jesus is the sacrifice that satisfies justice.

b. 1 John 2:2

“He is the propitiation for our sins… and also for the sins of the whole world.”

His sacrifice is sufficient for all humanity.

c. 1 John 4:10

“God sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”

Propitiation originates from God's love.

d. Hebrews 2:17

“…to make propitiation for the sins of the people.”

Jesus is both Priest and Sacrifice.

4. WHY WAS PROPITIATION NECESSARY?

a. Because all have sinned

Sin created separation and deserved punishment.

b. Because God’s wrath is real

Not a human anger, but His righteous response to evil.

c. Because God’s justice must be upheld

A holy God cannot overlook sin; a penalty must be paid.

d. Because man could not pay the price

No human or animal sacrifice was sufficient to remove sin permanently.

5. WHAT DID JESUS DO IN PROPITIATION?

1. He absorbed the wrath of God

On the cross, Jesus took the punishment we deserved:

The wrath

The judgment

The condemnation

The curse

2. He satisfied divine justice

God’s law required death. Jesus paid it fully.

3. He removed the barrier between God and man

The curtain in the temple tore—symbolizing access restored.

4. He reconciled us to God

Propitiation led to:

forgiveness

justification

peace with God

restored fellowship

6. PROPITIATION VS. EXPIRATION VS. REDEMPTION

• Propitiation — removes wrath

• Expiation — removes guilt

• Redemption — sets free from bondage

Jesus accomplished all three, but propitiation deals specifically with God’s righteous anger toward sin.

7. HOW IS PROPITIATION DIFFERENT FROM PAGAN IDEAS?

Pagan sacrifices:

are man trying to bribe or calm angry gods

come from fear

are human-initiated

Biblical propitiation:

is God Himself providing the sacrifice

comes from love

is initiated by God, not man

is once and for all

is perfect and complete

It is not humanity calming God, but God satisfying His own justice through His Son.

8. BENEFITS OF PROPITIATION

1. Salvation

Our sins are forgiven, and we are declared righteous.

2. Peace with God

The hostility between God and man is removed.

3. Access to God

We can now come boldly to the throne of grace.

4. No more condemnation

Because the wrath was poured on Christ, not on us.

5. Eternal security

A paid price cannot be repaid again.

9. HOW TO RECEIVE THE BENEFIT OF PROPITIATION

a. Through faith in Jesus Christ alone

Not good works, not religion, not rituals.

b. Through repentance

Turning away from sin and toward God.

c. Through surrender

Accepting the finished work of Christ.

10. A SHORT SERMON OUTLINE ON PROPITIATION (Optional for Preaching)

Title: “The Cross: Where Wrath Met Mercy”

Points:

1. The Problem: Sin demands justice

2. The Provision: God supplied the sacrifice

3. The Price: Christ took our wrath

4. The Power: We receive peace, forgiveness, and righteousness

5. The Promise: No more condemnation

Conclusion:

At the cross, justice met mercy, wrath met love, and sinners met salvation.

📖 SERMON TITLE: THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE-Dr. I. D. Samuel

INTRODUCTION

Knowledge is one of the most powerful forces in the universe. It shapes destinies, determines outcomes, and governs spiritual authority. The difference between where you are and where you ought to be is often the knowledge you have not yet gained. God does not only bless people with power—He blesses them with light. And light is another word for knowledge.

Darkness is not the absence of power; it is the absence of knowledge. When light comes, stagnation ends. When knowledge comes, transformation begins.

I. WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE?

Knowledge is accurate information, divine illumination, and spiritual understanding.

There are three types:

1. Natural knowledge — learned through study and experience.

2. Revelational knowledge — given by the Holy Spirit.

3. Prophetic knowledge — insight into God’s purposes and plans.

Knowledge is not just what you know; it is what you understand and apply.

II. WHY KNOWLEDGE IS POWERFUL

1. Knowledge Brings Freedom

Scripture: John 8:32 – “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

Ignorance is a prison without visible walls. Many are bound not because the enemy is mighty but because their understanding is small. Your deliverance is in your discovery.

2. Knowledge Preserves Life

Scripture: Hosea 4:6 – “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.”

Notice: God did not say “My people perish for lack of miracles,” but for lack of knowledge. A person can be prayerful yet still suffer if they lack the right knowledge.

3. Knowledge Gives Access and Advantage

When you know what others don’t know, you rise where others remain stuck.

Joseph ruled Egypt because he carried knowledge.

Daniel excelled in Babylon because “an excellent spirit was found in him.”

Knowledge opens doors, attracts opportunities, and creates relevance.

4. Knowledge Produces Confidence

Boldness comes from understanding.

David confronted Goliath because he knew God. The Israelites feared because they only knew the giant.

When you know your identity in Christ, fear loses its voice.

5. Knowledge Empowers Destiny

Every destiny rises on the strength of knowledge.

Your marriage, business, ministry, and spiritual life grow with the knowledge you acquire.

The Holy Spirit’s first operation in Genesis was light, not power—because knowledge comes before manifestation.

III. HOW KNOWLEDGE OPERATES IN THE LIFE OF A BELIEVER

1. Knowledge Transforms the Mind

Scripture: Romans 12:2 – Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

Transformation is not a prayer point; it is a knowledge point.

2. Knowledge Enhances Faith

Scripture: Romans 10:17 – Faith comes by hearing…

The more you know God, the easier it is to trust Him.

3. Knowledge Guides Decisions

Your decisions determine your destiny, and knowledge guides decisions.

A Christian with knowledge cannot be manipulated by circumstances.

4. Knowledge Is Spiritual Warfare

The enemy’s greatest weapon is ignorance.

Satan does not fear prayer without knowledge.

He fears believers who pray and understand.

IV. HOW TO GROW IN KNOWLEDGE

1. Pursue the Word of God

Scripture is the foundation of all spiritual knowledge.

Study it daily, not casually.

2. Submit to the Holy Spirit

He is the Spirit of revelation and wisdom.

Knowledge increases when you spend time in His presence.

3. Value Teachers, Mentors, and Books

What you ignore cannot bless you.

Exposure accelerates understanding.

4. Practice What You Learn

Knowledge without application is wasted.

Revelation becomes transformation when it becomes action.

V. PRACTICAL AREAS WHERE KNOWLEDGE MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Marriage and relationships

Finances and business

Ministry and spiritual growth

Health and personal development

Career and leadership

You master the areas where you increase in knowledge.

CONCLUSION

Knowledge is power. Knowledge is light. Knowledge is deliverance.

Where there is light, darkness flees.

Where there is understanding, the enemy is defeated.

Your next level is hidden in the knowledge you have not yet embraced.

PRAYER POINTS

1. Lord, open my understanding.

2. Illuminate every dark area of my life.

3. Give me revelation that will lift my destiny.

4. Break every chain of ignorance in my life.

5. Holy Spirit, fill me with wisdom, insight, and divine understanding.

ALTAR CALL

If you do not know Jesus, true knowledge has not begun.

Say:

“Lord Jesus, I believe You died and rose again. I receive You as my Lord and Savior. Fill me with Your Spirit and with divine knowledge. Amen.”

Governor Mutfwang Political propaganda dressed in church language

It is funny and honestly insulting that Governor Caleb Mutfwang keeps travelling around preaching “hope for Nigeria” and lecturing believers on being “agents of transformation,” while right here on the Plateau, his own leadership record is a complete contradiction of everything he is saying. He began his mess by firing government employees including tertiary institution staff in the state for no reason except for being employed by APC government. 

Before talking about national greatness, can Governor Mutfwang explain the darkness, division, court-imposed illegality, and economic hardship he has created in Plateau State?

Before advising Christians on reconciliation, can he first reconcile himself with the truth of how he has governed?

How can a Governor who cannot secure Riyom, Barkin Ladi, Mangu, and Bokkos suddenly position himself as a spiritual ambassador of national transformation?

Hahaha 😆 

Go and start a church in Mangu..

Flagrant Disobedience to court orders when he unjustly sacked constituted elected LGA Chairmen even when the apex court frowned at it, citing precedence in other states.

He also refused to continue very important projects (legacy projects) initiated by the previous administration despite being beneficial to plateau people.

How can a man whose government has been repeatedly indicted for electoral fraud, illegal appointments, and administrative recklessness pretend to be the “righteous leader” under whom “the people rejoice”?

The same Plateau youths he abandoned and the same civil servants he plunged into confusion are watching him travel up and down giving motivational speeches instead of delivering governance.

Let’s be sincere Nigeria will not become great through empty church language speeches. Nigeria will become great when leaders like Rev. Mutfwang stop hiding behind Bible verses and actually fix the mess in their own states.

Before talking about being “ambassadors of Christ,” he should start by being an ambassador of justice, transparency, security, and respect for the rule of law here on the Plateau.

Until then, these sermons are nothing more than political propaganda dressed in church language.

Enough of the hypocrisy. Plateau people deserve leadership, not theological lectures.

If you insist on being a cleric in the government house, relocate your office to the Government house chapel or come and let me ordain you a pastor and send you to start a branch of our ministry in Mangu

Speak to issues and stop preaching. We cant do your job. Please stop doing our job.

ENOUGH OF CHRISTIAN GENOCIDE IN NIGERIA

A WAKE UP CALL FROM I. D. SAMUEL, A DOCTOR OF CONFLICT MANAGEMENT AND PEACE STUDIES.

To My Fellow Nigerians 🇳🇬

Let’s be honest with ourselves no emotion, no sentiment, just truth.

Truly Christians are being killed endlessly in Nigeria 

Yes, Muslims have also been killed in this country. Nobody denies that. We’ve lost innocent lives in mosques, villages, and marketplaces from Zamfara to Borno. But let’s stop twisting facts: who are the killers?

Are they Christians? No.

Are they Jews? No.

Are they Buddhists? No.

Are they Muslims? YES

They are Jihadists extremists who hide under the name of Islam to slaughter both Christians and Muslims who disagree with their madness.

So when Christians cry out that they are being massacred because of their faith, let Muslims stop rushing to say “Muslims are victims too.” That’s not the point. Christians are being targeted in the name of religion. Muslims are being killed for refusing to join in the madness. Both are victims but the ideology behind the killing wears an ISLAMIC Jihadist face, not a Christian one.

No Christian has ever killed a Muslim in this country in the name of Jesus (pbuh). But how many times have we seen mobs shouting “Allahu Akbar” while burning churches and murdering innocent people? From Borno to Jos Plateau, from Kaduna to Yola these things happened, and we all know it.

Remember Deborah Yakubu in Sokoto?

She was lynched in broad daylight and many Muslims, including lawyers, defended her killers. That was the moment Nigeria lost its moral compass. Instead of defending justice, we defended evil because the victim was a Christian and the killers were Muslims.

That’s why the world no longer takes your defense seriously. We can’t claim to be victims while defending the monsters among you.

Until Muslims in Nigeria openly condemn and fight Jihadists with the same energy they defend Islam, this bloodshed will never end. Every time you justify or stay silent, you’re empowering those who destroy our image and faith.

Let’s stop being hypocritical. This isn’t about defending religion it’s about saving our humanity. Islam means peace, but too many people have turned it into a weapon.

We must unite as believers and Christians against the Jihadists who have hijacked our country. Enough is enough. Silence is no longer an option.

Before you start dancing Shekau Shekau that China warn USA to allow Nigeria deal with their internal affairs themselves i just want to let you know China IS TOO SMALL TO WARN U.S in this matter.

Permit me to remind you, Iran that have military alliance with China and Russia, Trump entered there a few month ago and blew off thier nuclear power plant that is about 30 fit bellow the earth, it was after they finished thier operation and had left Iran knew what happened and before the event they first ceased/captured Iran's air space for days.

Where was China and Russia after all these happened? They were mute because they know thier mate.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD 

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP WANTS TO WIPE 

OUT TERRORISTS AND TERRORISM IN NIGERIA, AND YOU 

ARE ANGRY! WHY ARE YOU ANGRY? ARE YOU A TERRORIST OR A SPONSOR OF TERRORISM?????

WHO IS A NARCISSIST? BY DR. I. D. SAMUEL

A narcissistic personality refers to a pattern of thinking, feeling, and behaving where a person has an inflated sense of self-importance, a constant need for admiration, and little regard for others’ feelings.

In psychology, extreme cases are diagnosed as Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). But many people show narcissistic traits without having the full disorder.

⚠️ Common Traits of a Narcissistic Personality

1. Grandiosity – Exaggerates achievements, expects to be recognized as superior without real accomplishments.

2. Need for Admiration – Constantly seeks praise, validation, or attention.

3. Lack of Empathy – Struggles to understand or care about others’ feelings.

4. Sense of Entitlement – Believes they deserve special treatment.

5. Exploitativeness – Uses others to achieve personal goals.

6. Arrogance – Looks down on others, often belittling or mocking them.

7. Fragile Self-Esteem – Appears confident, but is very sensitive to criticism or rejection.

👫 In Relationships

They may love-bomb (shower affection at first) but later devalue and criticize their partner.

They often manipulate using guilt, gaslighting, or silent treatment.

Relationships feel one-sided — the partner gives, while the narcissist takes.

They may become controlling or jealous when not the center of attention.

🌱 Root Causes

Psychologists suggest narcissism can develop from:

Childhood neglect or excessive criticism.

Over-pampering or being told they’re superior.

Insecurity masked by arrogance.

🛑 Effects on Partners

Being with a narcissistic partner can lead to:

Loss of self-esteem.

Constant self-doubt (due to gaslighting).

Imotional exhaustion from walking on eggshells.

Feeling unloved or unappreciated.

✅ How to Handle a Narcissistic Personality

1. Set Boundaries – Be firm about what you will not accept.

2. Avoid Power Struggles – They thrive on control and arguments.

3. Protect Your Self-Esteem – Don’t let their criticism define your worth.

4. Seek Support – Talk to trusted friends, mentors, or a counselor.

5. Know When to Walk Away – Some narcissists don’t change; leaving may be healthiest.

👉 In short:

A narcissistic personality is charming at first but can become toxic and draining over time. Recognizing the signs helps protect yourself and make wise relationship choices.
