Ahead of the 2023 elections, politicians have been warned not to underrate the ongoing “reformation of heart” among many Nigerian masses, “who are ready to downplay money and act in accordance with their conscience”.
The words of caution came on Saturday from Lagos cleric, Prophet Lai Bamidele, in a chat with our correspondent.
Bamidele, who is General Overseer of Christ Glorious End-Time Evangelical Church with headquarters in Lagos, said several years of failed promises and dashed hopes from elected politicians had made the people to learn their lessons in a hard way, and were now ready to make amends.
“We have never had it so bad in the life of this country, as many of our elected representatives and governors cutting across all political parties have let down the people who voted for them.
“The level of corruption in high places also stinks badly, despite anti-graft agencies like the EFCC (Economic and Financial Crimes Commission) and ICPC (Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission) in place.
“Most of our elected leaders, either as president, governors and lawmakers have failed to redeem their promises and dashed the hope of the masses who look up to them for direction, thus bringing more hardship on the poor masses in need of help,” he lamented.
The cleric who pointed at a recent comment by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that over 70 percent of recent registered, prospective voters were youths, said it was symptomatic of a people determined to make their votes count with no regard for percuniary gains.
“The masses, especially the youths are now going through what I will call reformation of heart, and these are the people who are ready to downplay money and act in accordance with their conscience.
“It also shows God in action, in the affairs of this country, as I foresee a Nigeria where voters will ask contestants what they intend to do if elected and not how much they have to spend to get there,” he stressed.
Meanwhile, Prophet Bamidele has also advised President Muhammadu Buhari to tackle headlong, the insecurity situation in the country, especially the rising wave of insurgency in northern Nigeria and cases of kidnapping across the country.
“The President should think critically of leaving behind a worthy legacy as against the present state in which nobody is any longer safe and the cost of living unbearable.
“He shouldn’t allow the next President to inherit this burden of insecurity and he should demonstrate that as a retired military officer, insecurity is not a worthy legacy to leave behind after eight years in office,” he counselled.
I was prescribed Soma for acute pain in the lower back. The course was 10 pills. I was taking pills for another week. I didn’t feel the effect at once, somewhere the pain began https://aircargoupdate.com/news-musculoskeletal-pain-pills-online-reliable-worldwide-delivery/ to subside after taking 5 pillls, but the relief was temporary. After a full course of treatment, the condition improved. The most important thing is to take pills after eating, and then the stomach begins to ache. The remedy is effective, but if you have gastritis or ulcer, then take it with caution.
