A renowned cleric, Chief Apostle Fidel Chimezie, has disclosed what God told her about new Nigeria, and what are required to actualize the new nation.
In a media chat to commemorate 65th anniversary of Nigeria's independent on Wednesday, October 1, 2025, Chief Apostle Chimezie, who is the founder of the Nigeria Ministers Project, and Apostolic Discipleship Project, said that God showed her a vision of a new Nigeria, and a pattern to dislodge principalities and negative altars holding the country down.
"When God called me, he said he has chosen me for a new Nigeria. He called the work a project. It is not a ministry; it is not a church. It is a project. My primary assignment is to gather ministers, principally apostles and prophets, to intercede and pray for a new Nigeria, and do all manner of works that will enable a new Nigeria to manifest. This call took place in 2007, after so many years of being born again.
"I was called in the order of apostolic work, principally the Chief Apostolic work. When I asked God what it means, He told me that whatever they use blood to do against His ministers or against the nation, he has empowered me to destroy them. God assured me that He can take me in the spirit to destroy whatsoever that is working against His people, and show them the way out.
"God said he selected me in the order of Peter and Paul, and since that time, He has been faithful. I am an altar minister. What it means is that I work with altars."
She said that major problem facing Nigeria is existence of negative altars; adding that God is always giving her the highest hirachy of altars based on the blood of Jesus Christ and the word of God, to bring to bear the power of God to deliver His people.
She said she used to do evangelistic work, until she was discovered by Mother Success, her spiritual mother, who revealed God's purpose for her life in the ministry as an apostle, not an evangelist.
She said, "I was discovered by Mother Success, my spiritual mother. I used to do evangelistic work, but God visited her to tell me that I was called into a national and apostolic assignment, and not evangelistic work. She refused to tell me but God punished her terribly, and told her to bring the message to me. When she came, she told me that the work I was doing was not my assignment. She told me that God has assigned me to do a national assignment, to help His ministers and His church. She told me that God would visit me that night to tell me what He wanted me to do for Him.
"She also told me to write my name, and I wrote my name as Evangelist Fidel Chimezie. She cancelled the Evangelist, and wrote Apostle Fidel Chimezie. She said if I should remain obedient for five years, God would elevate me to the rank of Chief Apostle. So, as I was lying down that night, the Lord came. He said He had been waiting for me since to have that discussion. It was in that dream that God told me that He wanted to give me power so that whatever anybody uses blood to do in the negative altars, I am empowered to spoil them. He said that when a person is having headache and takes Panadol, it will stop, but when a person is having headache because somebody sacrifices blood on the negative altar, there is nothing one can do to stop it, except if someone like me prays against such sickness.
He also said that he had given such powers to others in the past but that the protocol they put in place did not allow people to have access to them. He said He would give me that power but would have a convenant with Him that I would not set a protocol standard that would hinder people from accessing me in anyway they want.
"God promised He would be telling me what to do, and that he would be directing people to me that would work with me, sending money that I would need, and going where I need them to go. He said that the people that would be around me per time would not be more than seven, so that they would not distract me. To the glory of God, I have been into this project for 18 years, doing great apostolic assignments."
The cleric also spoke about negative altars holding Nigeria down, and what God proferred to her as way forward.
She said, "In one of our programs, the Lord told me that Nigeria's problem started when Mongo Park visited Nigeria and offered a sacrifice at the confluence point in Lokoja. At the confluence point, Mongo Park offered sacrifices to the marine spirit on behalf of the British. The Lord revealed that as long as the confluence remained there, the British will always Lord themselves over us and dictate for us on major issues. This negative altar and sacrifice are holding Nigeria down, even to the point of affecting our political leaders, to manipulate them to do the wrong thing.
"So, the reason we're raising apostles, prophets and ministers is to use the altar of God to destroy negative powers and principalities, so that God will raise people with positive new mindset to rebuild Nigeria."
Speaking about God's pattern for a new Nigeria, she said that the Lord instructed her to gather ministers, two from each state of Nigeria, to travel to Dubai, where they would pray, and call on the angel that helped develop Dubai to come over and develop and transform Nigeria.
"God has instructed me to raise people immediately from every state that would go with me to Dubai. We're to spend between 12 to 14 days in Dubai praying for Nigeria. After the prayer, everyone will pack sand from Dubai to his state, and invoke the spirit of unity, oneness and agreement (which helped Dubai develop) to make itself manifest in the land. This prayer will block the airways against demonic forces troubling Nigeria; so that evil altars will be dismantled, and our people will begin to reason properly."
While regretting that she had not got any support from government at any level since the project started18 years ago, she called on Nigerians and people of goodwill, who are sincerely tired of the situation of Nigeria, to rally round the project and support it.
"Since we started this work, no government has supported us except individuals. It is a very expensive project. God has instructed us to raise people that will go to Dubai again. Who will finance it? I don't know! So, it is important that we raise men who have core knowledge of what God wants Nigeria to do, so that they will stand in gap physically and spiritually, praying for this country and its leaders. This is the pattern to deliver Nigeria," she said.
On why God is insisting on the Dubai visit, she clarified: "Whenever God wants to accomplish a mission, he provides a pattern of what it looks like. God is using Dubai as pattern for us because, He is saying it is only with the spirit of agreement and oneness that this nation could be built. God wants us to go to Dubai because of the environment of unity, oneness and agreement.
"When we go there, stand and pray in agreement, the land will incubate us, and we shall be like them. But we need to agree primarily, and pray to God to help us. We need salvation in Nigeria but the approach we adopt is always wrong. In this project, sacrifices are involved, money is needed, ransom is required, so, I'm pleading with our people to rally round this assignment so that Nigeria will move forward. But most importantly, apostles and prophets should get ready to serve their fatherland. They should be ready to intercede for the office of governance of the land, so that our Lord and Master will rule over the affairs of Nigeria. Until we do this, we shall continue to labour in vain, and wallow in darkness."
On the political climate, the Chief Apostle regretted that those coming out to contest political positions in Nigeria do not love the country, and do not have the development of the nation at heart.
"People coming out to contest political positions in Nigeria don't love the nation. Their hearts are insatiable. They have money - they want to make more money. But they don't want anything that will advance the course of the land. Nigeria is very rich. God bless us in every capacity, but unfortunately, there are very few that desire the welfare of the land.
"I find out that the problem of this land is leadership. Regrettably, the political leadership has so manipulated the church that instead of the church helping to direct the political leadership, they have corrupted the leadership of the church, and has brought them to very low standard; forcing them to jeteson the Lord Jesus Christ, who is our standard. So, instead of the church winning the race, they're getting it bad. This is why God is echoing this time that I should raise Him ministers from every state. I tried to explain all these things that Nigeria is going through to former President Jonathan through the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator Anyim Pious Anyim, but Senator Anyim blocked the whole thing. I asked him to get us about twelve persons there who are Christians, who can follow us to Dubai to pray, according to the instruction of God, so that the spirit that helped develop Dubai will come over to develop our country using Hosea 10:12, that God will always show signs of what He wants to do using His prophets, but Anyim refused. Look at it now; the matter is getting worse. But the Lord who called me is giving us another opportunity."
