Former Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo has called on churches in Nigeria to shift their focus from preaching prosperity and wealth accumulation to instead emphasising the importance of peace, productivity, and community development.

Osinbajo gave the opinion while delivering a lecture at the 68th Anniversary and 58th Annual Convention of The Gospel Faith Mission International (GOFAMINT) at the weekend.

Speaking on the theme of the lecture titled: “The Christian Faith in the Political Struggles: A case study of Nigeria,” the former Vice President argued that the obsession with wealth and lavish lifestyles among some religious leaders has alienated a significant portion of the population, particularly the youths, who are seeking more meaningful and impactful messages from the pulpit.

He noted that for too long, churches have been caught up in the pursuit of personal prosperity and material wealth, neglecting the true calling of the gospel to promote peace, unity, and the holistic development of the society.

According to him, if the church leaders truly love the country and want it to rise again, they must return to their roots, preaching the values of hard work, comion, and service to the community.

He said: “For too long, our churches have been caught up in the pursuit of personal prosperity and material wealth, neglecting the true calling of the gospel to promote peace, unity, and the holistic development of our society.

“If we truly want to see Nigeria rise again and fulfill its immense potential, the church must return to its roots, preaching the values of hard work, comion, and service to the community.

“It is only through this shift in focus that we can inspire our people to become agents of positive change, rather than mere consumers of prosperity gospel.”

Osinbajo warned that when preachers place on benefits and rewards, especially Christians in government and position of authority, it makes national development suffer because the people’s mind will be soiled and unable to do what is right.

He said many prosperous nations of the world have no natural resources while many nations with many national endowments are lurking in poverty because people do not play according to the rules of hard work and productivity.

Osinbajo added that many countries in Europe and America that the country sought to be like thrived based on the true gospel of Jesus Christ that was preached from the pulpit coupled with other virtues like hardwork, productivity, integrity, protection of the poor, among others.

He said many preachers do not care to question the source of wealth of their but attribute almost any unexplainable wealth and riches to miracles.

Osinbajo said further: “The major responsibility of christians, responsibility of the church is propagating the correct version of the gospel of Jesus Christ and it is that correct version of the gospel of Jesus Christ that transformed other nations of the world.”

“The nations that we copy, the nations we want to emulate, the nations whose developments we have seen, the nations in Europe, America, it is the gospel of Jesus Christ and the virtues of hard work, productivity, integrity, protection of the poor preached from the pulpit that transfer this nations.”

“If we must transform and impact on our nations as Christians and as a Church, we must be mindful of the messages we preach, such that it will encourage and promote virtues of hardwork, integrity, productivity while also caring for the poor and needy around us,” he stressed.

Osibanjo and Buhari are still part of the problems we're facing currently, he should shut up!

Osinbanjo ate the Vice President's salary for 8 years straight so he cannot say he is not part and parcel of the disaster that is Nigeria today. During all 8 years, even Osinbanjo's very own people in his LGA and hometown could not boast of any of the following, to this day.
■ Electricity
■ Clean Water Supply
■ Sewage
■ Good Roads(roads built by the ancient Romans thousands of years ago are still very much available to this day)
■ enger Rail
■ Security
■ Reliable internet and mobile services
■ Waste Management
■ Strong healthcare system
■sturdy educational & training System
■a Welfare/Social system...

Former Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo is one of the many colossal failures of the last 25 years. Let's stop recycling obvious Kakistocrats!

*JASON'S LAW OF CORRUPTION*

*Nigerians* are roughly bifurcated into two: the *ruling wicked; and the waiting wicked.*

On June 13, 1988, *Pini Jason Onyegbaduo (1948 - 2013),* a popular Nigerian columnist, propounded a *"Hypothesis Of Corruption."*

The hypothesis was intellectually articulated in the now, defunct *THISWEEK News-Magazine.*

But unknown to *Pini Jason,* he had developed what would become known as the *"Jason's Law Of Corruption."*

The *"Law"* would subsequently help explain the unimaginable acts of corruption being perpetrated by *Nigerians; and Africans* in *Leadership* positions.

In a nutshell, *Jason's Law Of Corruption* states:
"The decibel of an average *Nigerian's public outcry is directly proportional to his distance from the opportunity to do exactly what he condemns."*

*Jason's Law* further states:
*"The difference between many a vociferous, sanctimonious and pontificating Nigerian and the villainous, itchy-fingered kleptomaniac is probably the absence of the opportunity to steal."*

*Jason's Law* concludes:
"In all probability, should the opportunity occur, *yesterday's moral Crusader, is more likely to crumble and disappear under the weight of Corruption."*

Explained in simple , *Jason's Law* maintains that the
farther the distance between a *Nigerian (African) and power-authority position, the higher the noise he makes against acts of corruption; the nearer he is to the position, the lesser the noise he makes.*
*...and When in the Position, the noise Ceases completely.*

Suffice to say that *Jason's* corruption hypothesis has never *failed* the test when applied in the analysis of the *bizarre behavior of Nigerians; and Africans in power.*
It is in this light that the hypothesis has been appropriately upgraded to the status of a *"Law Of Corruption."*

Therefore, whenever you are confronted with issues of *Corruption* in relation to erstwhile trusted *Nigerian; and African* individuals, who betrayed the *trust* reposed in them when elevated to positions of *Power and Authority,* always *"JASON'S LAW OF CORRUPTION."*
This is very simple *Fact* for anybody to understand.

See who Dey talk .

Is he not a pastor?
Charity begins at home!

Truer truths were never told.

Pre COVID-19, they were preaching faith, grace, seed, sacrifice....After covid tested all their faith, they've ALL started to preach Hardwork...plus prayer.

Church people keep hoping and praying for breakthrough.
Imagine if we had started business since our university days...how many student entrepreneurs you knew in your set are broke today

Pray...coz life you.
Work Hard, knowing that your life's outcome is in your hands.

Nigerian politicians don't have the right to speak about integrity and hardwork cos when you talk of laziness, majority of these foolish politicians are epitome of laziness. They go into government to increase the pains and burdens of hardworking Nigerians. Because of people like osibanjo, many youths are living a life of penury and abject poverty.

The Church needs to do more, no doubt but the worst we are experiencing as a Nation is from Osibanjo and his likes who are the Politicians. All Nigerian politicians ought to be ashamed of giving advises to us cos we know how lavishly they lived.

Osibanjo reasoning is shallow... If he truly understands the Scripture or does that which he preaches, he will rather hide his face and be weeping cos when he got the Vice president position, he was a dummy who couldn't speak truth to power or made any meaningful change.

It amazes me how this politicians think. I sincerely believe they all don't have sound reasoning. That's why they don't see any wrong in stealing, looting instead of making policies that will progress the Nation. They all are big fools including Osibanjo...

My advice to the Church is that the Church should learn to speak truth to power. I Pray for the likes of Osibanjo and other politicians that the LORD will open your blind eyes and make you realize the pains you have caused Nigerians and make you an agent of positive change In Jesus Name.

Osibanjo, go and sit down and meditate on all I said.

Yes, hard and legitimate smart work pays a lot

Churches and mosques should just be scraped or used to build micro companies in Nigeria for six months, even USA and, other countries will be running to Nigeria for assistance..

Warning shots fired,

VDM vs pastor fufeyin money must be made

Ok

You are still pained that PYO contested against your lagos landlord ?

i disagree with you sir. salvation over hardwork rather

Nope! On Fufeyin’s miracle water/soap and Indaboski’s Abido shaker we stand!

When Nigerians are truly ready, they know what to do.

How can a lazy man preach hard work?

It is laziness that makes people open churches just to steal from the gullible in the society.

And no to corruption

Gradually, we will get there. Hope daddy GOs especially Oyedepo and his trainees like Ibeyemo abi how them call his name who said he gave God one million dollars when he had no house are listening to this. Enough of the deception inside church in the name of seed sowing and tithe to swindle brainwashed followers of their hard earn monies.

Soft woek

Mumu headline.

Salvation is personal like spiritual prosperity but physical can be more collective and needs orderly system not chaotic.
