Rule With Fear of God – Aladekugbe Charges Nigeria Leaders

Leaders in Nigeria in all facets of life be it political,economic, financial, academic labour, security and the host of others should make fear of God and righteousness their watch words.

The present Nigeria predicament is centered on bad leadership and followership due to our lack of conscience and belief in God.

The statements were made by the Ibadan Diocesan Bishop, Rt. Rev’d Williams Oluwarotimi Aladekugbe shortly after the Diamond Jubilee celebration of his 60th birthday at Cathedral of St Peter, Aremo, Ibadan .

Bishop Aladekugbe called on Nigerian leaders to allow the country to move forward by shunning the social vices eating into the fabric of our nation.

The clergy appealed to the followers to stop murmuring but instead play their roles by being law abiding citizens, render their civic duties and pray for our leaders for our country to bounce back, he admonished.

The celebrant made a Clarion call on Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress to make their demand on increase in minimum wage realistic and modest in the interest of the progress of our nation.

In his congratulatory message,the most Rev’d Henry Ndukuba who is the Archbishop, Metropolitan and Primate of all Nigeria said Bishop Aladekugbe throughout his years of ministry and episcopate has been a guiding light and a source of inspiration to many, his commitment to spreading the gospel and nurturing the faith of others is commendable.

In his words, “we celebrate not only your achievements but also the wonderful person you are:-a compassionate shepherd, a wise leader and a cherished friend to all who know you.Your impacts on the lives you’ve touched resonates deeply and will continue to bear fruit for years to come.”

Most Rev’d Joseph Akinfenwa, the former Archbishop of Ibadan province and presently the Bishop of Ibadan Diocese in his birthday sermon enjoined both political and religious leaders to be accommodating,tolerant and humble as no condition is permanent.

Gracing the occasion were Bishops,clergies and their wives, royal fathers, political office holders, business tycoons, family, friends and well_wishers.
