    He lamented that some of those in positions of authority are not thinking towards making positive impact. 

    According to him: “He 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. You know that there are some men of God in this country who don’t believe this nation could be better.

    “They do not have the faith that things could be better. Many now developed countries have actually passed through the current wilderness we are going through. 

    “But why our pathetic situations persist is because we are yet to have many committed leaders and people in positions of authority. Many who are in positions now are not dedicated, selfless and committed to making things better. God has shown them mercy to attain the height they are now without they sweating for it.but they haven’t been doing well enough. 

    “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 Wil witness a positive change towards meaningful growth and development. 

    “The theme of this programme is Exodus, which means, God is breathing life into lives . He will ensure that His people experience miracles that would turn around their lives for better. God is always ready to assist righteous people. Being righteous is not by always going to church. That is different. 

    “We must ensure that we 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 realize that one day we shall give account of all that we do here on earth.”
