The Planter Of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Adamimogo, Grace Of Mercy Prayer Mountain Worldwide, Prophet Sam Olu Alo has said Nigeria deserves righteous and patriotic leaders in positions of authority now, not political joblers.
The cleric urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to desist from appointing politicians into public offices as a way of compensating them.
Speaking at Jesus City, Lekki/Epe express way, the cleric said President Tinubu should henceforth appoint experts who could come up with solutions to various challenges facing the nation, saying If such aforementioned people at the helms of affairs, Nigeria would be better.
He lamented that some of those in positions of authority are not thinking towards making positive impact.
He said, “We are not talking about politicians alone. Even those of us who are men of God, we must have that optimism that Nigeria could be better.
“My advice is that we need more committed people in positions of authority in Nigeria. We urge our President to ensure that he assigns technocrats, righteous and patriotic leaders in positions of authority. He should do this without considering political associations.
“Our President should not compensate people with political offices but rather assign those who will truly do the job and deliver dividends of democracy for the people. If this is done, Nigeria will witness a positive change towards meaningful growth and development,” he said.
He urged to ensure that they have a true and sincere relationship with God. “The Bible makes us to understand that God says that l know.my people and my people also know me. True men of God cannot be identified by their clothes or face or appearance, their character and actions are germane.
“We must all have it in mind that we should always be righteous and live a righteous life and realise that one day we shall give account of all that we do here on earth.”
Also speaking, Pastor Sonibare Odunayo urged Nigerian youths to be more responsible and shun acts capable of cutting short their lives by indulging in money making rituals and inordinate ambitions for wealth.
He said, “I want to believe it is not bad economy that is the situation. Bad economy cannot exist if we don’t have bad people. What caused bad economy is our character and ideology and behaviour.
“I want to believe that if we are able to correct our ways and do the right thing at the right time, we would have a very good economy. Nigeria is a blessed country. We have tremendous human and material resources.”
Also, Mrs. Modupe Ogunsuiyi, said, “We need to do so many things for the younts of today because the way they are looking for money is worrisome. Some of them can go as far as using their mother’s for money rituals. My advice is that churches can organise orientation programmes for youths to discourage them from been too hasty to make money.”
