The Senior Pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, Pastor Sam Adeyemi, has proposed a weekly practice of addressing constituents if he were in a leadership role as President of Nigeria or the governor of a state.
Adeyemi emphasised the
importance of regular communication between leaders and the people and stressed
that such addresses could be brief, but they would focus on promoting
development and progress.
He said this while speaking on Channels
Television’s Sunrise Daily, on Monday.
“If I was the governor or
president of Nigeria, I would address the nation every Sunday evening or
Monday. It may be five minutes but I will sell the idea of development.
“For too long, we’ve allowed
those in power to dictate our path forward. If they are unwilling to instigate
change, we must initiate it ourselves, starting at the individual level,”
Adeyemi asserted.
While highlighting the power of
communication, particularly through social media and modern communication
tools, in spreading messages and initiating change, he underlined the need for
responsible leadership at all levels and encouraged citizens to take an active
role in shaping the future of Nigeria.
