2023: Get Ready To Hijack Power From Bad Leaders, CAN President Charges Christians

The National President, Christians Association of Nigeria (CAN), Rev. Samson Supo Ayokunle  has called on Christians across the country to express their readiness to take over mantle of leadership ahead of 2023 general elections.

According to him, any individual who has the intention of running for any elective position in the country must first of all subject himself or herself to a self-test on readiness to take up such responsibility.

The CAN President in a lecture entitled 'The State Of The Nation: The Way Forward', during the Holy Convention 2021 Of The Victory Life Bible Church, Abeokuta, on Tuesday, said leadership comes with a deep sense of responsibility, commitment, and selflessness, noting that good leadership fosters progress.

Describing the multi-ethnicity of Nigeria as unique, Reverend Ayokunle maintained that the people must remain undivided.

The CAN National President explained that problems which include insecurity, corruption, youth unemployment, infrastructural decay and inadequacy, among others need a more holistic approach to tackle.

The number one christian in the country while describing the youths as the future of the country called on the authorities to urgently address the problem of youth unemployment.

He also called for the revamping of the moribund agricultural processing factories  and agro-allied industries, reminding that agriculture was once the mainstay of the nation's economy.

Reverend Ayokunle while expressing hope of better days ahead called on the people to be fervent in prayers, seeking  God's divine intervention towards making things right in the country.

Earlier while welcoming guests and members of the congregation, the Set Man at the Victory Life Bible Church, Apostle Lawrence Achudume informed that the lecture became necessary with a view to deliberating on the current situation in the Country and charting the way forward.

He submitted that the CAN National President was chosen to be the Guest Speaker by virtue of his position as well as his blunt stand on burning national issues .
