Poverty isn’t a crime. It could be a virtue of God - Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, says as he reflects on the life of late Pope Francis

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has said that poverty is not a crime and that it can sometimes be considered as a virtue.

Akpabio stated this while speaking from Rome after attending the funeral of Pope Francis.

“When you look at the Catholic Church, the Catholic Church is not just a church. The Vatican is also regarded as a state. You have the head of state that d!ed and was buried today... heading over 1.5 billion people around the world.

You have a man who d!ed as a man today, the Pope, who was worth only $100, showing that we cannot worship God in splendour.

The best way to worship God is through self-sacrifice for others," he said.

He went on to say

“The message is very clear that Nigerians should love one another. Poverty is not a crime and that poverty could sometimes be a virtue, a virtue of God. Whatever you have, you should be able to share with your brothers and sisters, especially during this Easter period,”

How did this man become a governor in Akwa Ibom State? Is this how unintelligent the people are?

It’s as if one of the requirements to holding a position of power in Nigeria is stupidity and ineptitude

Yeah I know about him..

I’m just a normal human being so no need to be scared

This man should always write what he want to say n stick to it. So much blunder.... Imagine, poverty a virtue, how?. Does he know d meaning of virtue at all?
N who told him d pope was poor?
Choosing to leave a modest life despite having all it takes to be wealthy is completely different from been poor.
Where d pope was treated, was it a poor man hospital? With d number of treatment d pope has gone through, a poor man wouldn't ve live this long.
Poverty is inability to afford ur needs n also having no one to argument.

Funny

This Akpabio's message is for senator Natasha.

Learn how to share what you have with your brothers and sisters please.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wetin Cana dey reason this guy no too good o

Crooked criminal who stole the resources of a nation blind and sending "prayer email" to fellow criminals is here justifying poverty

This man is insane........
The people who choose to live the life of frugality are not necessarily poor.

You have a man who d!ed as a man today, the Pope, who was worth only $100, showing that we cannot worship God in splendour.

He worth $100 keh?

This man is just too stupid.

May the virtue of poverty be the reality for Akapabio's generations for decades to come

Immediately you APC, you become an irredeemable idiot..Bwala.
Akpabio is just one of the many idiots in power.
A criminal government

Akpabio trying so hard to redeem his public image. But always scoring own goals at every given point.

Coming from someone that has been enjoying govt loot since 1999.

From commissioner to two term governor,to senator,to minister of Nigeria Delta and now to senate president again. The acct balance of akpabio go don enter trillions.

No be him dey supposed dey preach about poverty,cos he's never experienced it. Nonsense

So many people in Nigeria occupy public offices they are not fit for.

Sometimes, you just dey mis-fire.

Nonsense.
Why are you not poor then
