Nigeria is NOT Worth dying for -pastor Akimolowo
Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo
Pastor Akimolowo has blast Nigeria with a bitchy remark.This was prodded by his flashback to the untimely death of his father during the controversial Biafran war,and the failure of the Nigerian gov't to inform his family.
Matthew Ashimolowo, the senior pastor of Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) has criticised Nigerian leaders over comments to prolong their tenure in office, Daily Post reports.
Ashimolowo who stated that his father died in active service as a Nigerian soldier added that Nigeria was not worth dying for as a country.’
He said: “My father was killed at the Asaba/Onitsha bridge during the Nigeria/Biafra civil war in 1967 and the Nigerian military did not have the decency to inform my family.
“His death was treated with levity; even to get his entitlement from the military, my brother had to bribe his way through. Is this the kind of country you would want to die for?”
The cleric who described Nigeria as “a five-talent nation being perpetually led by one-talent leaders” however regretted the fact that willing Nigerians who have good plans to develop the country were regularly frustrated by some privileged few.
“Nigeria’s problem is because culture influences how we choose leaders. Culture puts age before ability to choose leaders. This as not only wrong, but also outdated. Weak leadership is the single reason why Africa as a continent seems to be trapped.
“Europe would not survive if it was not for Africa. Most of the things they need to survive are in Africa.
“A good leader does not need a four year term to make a difference. You can do that in a year,” he added.
Meanwhile, Pastor William Kumuyi, the general superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry said on judgment day, hell will be hotter for members of the church who are sinners.
This, according to Kumuyi is because the Deeper Life sinners have heard enough of the word of God but still refused to repent from their bad ways.this is pretty reasonable to reasoners.
