Lead Pastor of Gbenga Dahunsi Ministry International (The Set Apart Church) Ibadan, Pastor Gbenga Dahunsi, has urged leaders to prioritise the welfare of citizens.
Speaking with reporters at a crusade in Ijesha Isu, Ekiti State, he advised political leaders to put the interest of the people at heart.
He said they should ensure the welfare of Nigerians is paramount in their minds.
”I advise all political leaders to put the interest of people at heart. The welfare of Nigerians should be paramount above all things.
“Equity, justice and fairness should be hallmarks of leadership in our country.
“Just as the Bible has encouraged, we shall continue to pray for all men in authority and it is our prayer that the peace of God shall rule over Nigeria,” he said.
The cleric is raising the bar of evangelism by giving succour to the less privileged persons.
He donated food items, cash gifts and writing materials to over 500 adults and children.
Dahunsi said while it is necessary to preach the gospel, the welfare of the people needs to be taken care of.
He said: ”As a pastor, I am a proponent of humanitarian gestures. We do give free medical health care services for the sick, provide food items, clothes, academic sponsorships such as payment of school fees, and provide stationery and boreholes to a lot of communities.
”At Ijesha Isu, Ekiti, we attended to medical issues of over 200 persons.
“By the grace of God, we offered foodstuffs to many households, and writing materials to primary, junior and senior secondary school students in the community.”
