2015 Elections: Religious Leaders Urged To Encourage Peace

The need for religious Leaders to brace up to their responsibility of leading Nigerians away from sin so as to reduce some of the problems confronting the nation has been encouraged.

The Lagos based minister of God, Pastor Paul Adenuga who gave the charge in Ado Ekiti, said the political parties in Nigeria lack committed leaders that can deliver the nation from its present socio-political and economic crises.
 

The Cleric blamed religious leaders for some of the challenges the nation is going through at the moment. Adenuga who spoke with newsmen on the forthcoming general elections, said Christian and Muslim clerics should have been saddled with the task of supervising the polls, but for the partisan nature of some of them.


He expressed worries over divergent prophesies that have been coming from top clerics across the country suggesting that the February polls would be bloody.

The minister of God who lamented the nation's constant economic crises, fingered mismanagement and wastefulness as a major factor affecting our economy.

He stressed the need for us to emulate countries like America, Britain where their economy are stable and good.

Adenuga said there was no assurance with the way the political parties have been playing their cards, to suggest that they are committed to the survival of the country.

According to him, he has not seen anything in the parties that suggest that one is better than the other, since the fear of God is lacking in all of them.


In the meantime, Nigerians have been enjoined to ensure a peaceful conduct of the general elections next weekend.
