Nigeria will become a better country, says Kumuyi

The General Superintendent, Deeper Life
Christian Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has
said that the country will experience change
when individuals take steps within their
circles of influence.
The clergy, who said he had just come back
from a tour of some northern and southern
states, added that he had spoken with some
governors on the way forward in curbing
religious crises.
Kumuyi spoke during a special Sunday
service held at the International Bible
The service was attended by Governor
Emmanuel Udom of Akwa Ibom State.
He said, “To start with, we need hope and
once we have hope and we know that we
are not going to stay where we are forever;
then we begin to make the change within,
and have a desire that here is where we are
going.
“Then how do we get there? The change
begins with me, you and the people that
have that desire or idea in mind. Then we
take the first step, it could be a little step or
baby step; and if we are focused, eventually
we will get there, we will get to the place we
know God wants us to get to, and Nigeria
will become better.”
In his remarks, Udom said state
governments must be able to feed their
citizens.
The governor, who added that the country
must prioritise agriculture, urged Nigerians
to shun corruption.
He said “There is no leadership that is not
instituted by God for a purpose. But how
sincere are we? Let us start with ourselves.
A driver who collects N10,000 for fuel but
pockets N2,000. There is no small or big
corruption. I don’t know how many people
know that lying is corruption. If you can lie,
you can do any other thing.
“But we have hope in God and in our
country. We are beginning to have leaders
who are prepared for leadership and I am
one of them. As we make mistakes, we
correct our mistakes and move forward, “
he said.
