The President, Cherubim and
Seraphim Movement Church
Worldwide, Most Revd Samuel
Abidoye, has called on
President Goodluck Jonathan to emulate his Malawian
counterpart, Joyce Banda, by
paying more attention to the
welfare of the people.
He said there was an urgent
need for the government to
address the high rate of
unemployment and poverty in
Nigeria.
He said the citizens would not
be suffering if the abundant
resources at the country's
disposal had been judiciously
utilised.
"That is the kind of person we
want to rule Nigeria. I think we
should go to the lady and learn,"
Abidoye said during a courtesy
call to the PUNCH Place,
headquarters of Punch Nigeria
Limited, Magboro, Ogun State,
on Friday.
He said, "Nigeria is so blessed
with everything to take care of
everybody, but many cannot eat
three square meals; some can't
even eat two.
"Let the government know that
many people are suffering. The
cry of the poor is too loud.
When I look at what God has
given Nigeria and how the
people live their lives, the gap is
too wide."
He noted that unless the
government reduced the high
rate of unemployment, the spate
of insecurity in the country
might persist.
He decried the failure of
religious leaders to instil moral
values in their followers, saying
that more of them were after
material gains.
