Reverend Benton Opene-Luxington (popularly known as Rev Benton), founder of The RevBenton Experience, has called for what he describes as a national spiritual reconfiguration — a transformation of Nigeria’s moral and leadership foundation through integrity and divine alignment.

According to him, Nigeria’s problem is not the absence of talent but the absence of spiritual integrity at the heart of leadership.

“Nigeria has enough talent,” he said. “But what we lack is integrity encoded in spirit. I’m not calling for new politics — I’m calling for new priests who can govern.”

Rev Benton’s teachings, which combine prophetic insight, psychological depth, and poetic intensity, have gained massive digital traction, particularly among young Nigerians and the emerging middle class seeking clarity and purpose in uncertain times. His content reportedly reaches over 10 million people online, forming what followers call a “digital sanctuary.”

One follower described his influence as deeply personal:

“I had no name for the kind of warfare I was under. Benton didn’t just preach — he decoded my life.”

His delivery is urgent and declarative, often expressed in memorable statements such as:

“You are a throne, not a target. And that’s why they came for your light.”

These phrases, now widely circulated on social media, have become spiritual affirmations for many young Nigerians navigating cultural fatigue and religious confusion.

Born in Lagos, Rev Benton is known for blending intellectual rigor with spiritual fire. His movement, known internally as The Chosen Ones, is not a conventional church but rather a prophetic ecosystem and mentorship network designed to raise leaders beyond the pulpit.

His teachings explore topics such as spiritual warfare, divine purpose, energetic protection, narcissistic trauma, and cultural redemption.

He is also developing a Celestial University, an initiative aimed at merging ancient wisdom, psychological intelligence, and prophetic activation to train leaders who can influence governance, media, healing, and education through what he calls “spiritual intelligence.”

Across cities like Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Benin, his messages are spreading through youth fellowships, university groups, and even traditional churches, where they are quietly reshaping conversations around purpose, power, and destiny.

Rev Benton’s message remains rooted in African identity. Drawing from Yoruba cosmology and ancestral symbolism, he connects traditional spirituality with divine purpose, urging Nigerians to reclaim moral and cultural authority.

“I’m not here to sell escape,” he said. “I’m here to activate dominion. We don’t just survive systems — we rebuild them.”

As Nigeria continues to grapple with questions about moral direction and national renewal, Rev Benton’s growing movement — both digital and physical — represents what many see as a new spiritual model for leadership and transformation.

“It’s not about volume,” he said. “It’s about vibration — establishing altars in minds, not just buildings on land.”

From all indications, the Celestial Movement he leads is no longer a whisper.
It is becoming a current — and Nigeria, he insists, is beginning to respond.
