I’m Too Connected To Suffer, You Should Vote Wisely In 2023, Pastor, Ibiyeomie Tells Congregation

Pastor David Ibiyeomie, senior pastor and founder of Salvation Ministries has said he is too connected to suffer the way members of his church and Nigerians, in general, are suffering due to the bad leadership in the country.

 

The popular clergyman who said this while warning his congregation to vote wisely in the 2023 general elections warned against focusing on political parties, saying that it will be more like a ticket to a higher level of suffering in Nigeria, adding that though he can never be part of the suffering as he has never been.

Pastor Ibiyeomie in a video of one of his sermons sarcastically said that if Nigerians vote wrong leaders into the government in 2023, one naira will rise to N5,000 per one dollar.

Quoting Ecclesiastics Chapter 10 verse 16 of the Christian Holy Bible, which says “Woe to you, o land, when your king is a child and your princes eat in the morning,” Ibiyeomie said any leader who will require the use of diapers, which could be due to old age or ill health, is dangerous.

The cleric said, “You have seen that this person cannot perform, yet you are saying party; party nonsense! I have told you, if you vote for a party, the way you will suffer, me, I will always be here. I’m telling you, I will not suffer with you. Nothing will make me suffer with you.

“I know too much that I can’t suffer with you but I can tell you, you know I’m a man of God. Try to make a mistake, the naira will turn to N5,000 per dollar. If you don’t want naira to turn to N5,000, better tell yourself what to do.”

“It says woe to you if you vote for people who have nothing in their head. If you vote for parties this time Nigerians, we will fold our hands and be watching you. All the things you are suffering, am I suffering with you? I’m too connected by covenant to suffer what you people are suffering but if you vote, it says woe to you if your leader is like a child.

That means any leader who will be using diapers is dangerous. It says woe to you oh land when your king is a child. It is the Bible, I’m not the one who said it. They used that verse for children, so if you have a leader who they use diapers for, woe to you. It is the Bible, am I the one that said it? Except you want to argue with the Bible,” he added.

 

Why Tinubu Cannot Succeed Buhari In 2023 – Pastor Ighodalo Reveals

Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, senior Pastor of the Trinity House, a non-denominational Christian centre headquartered in Lagos, has said Asiwaju Bola Tinubu can not succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

Speaking in an interview the cleric, who is a close friend of Tinubu, said the former Lagos governor is only ambitious and not ready to offer anything to Nigerians.

He stated that what the country needs after Buhari is someone who is really ready to serve, adding that the nations doesn’t need someone who sees the presidency as a personal ambition.

Ighodalo said: “Tinubu is my personal friend, as a person, I love him very much, he has been very kind to me, he is a good man, but leadership today in Nigeria is greater than any personal ambition, the kind of leader we want is not someone who says being president has been my life ambition, no, you must do better than that. What are you offering the people? What are you giving the people, where are you taking them to, do you have the interest of the people at heart? Or you are just trying to put on your CV that you became president of Nigeria?

“We don’t have time for that anymore in Nigeria, we want people who really want to serve the people, people who are really ready to lay themselves down for the people, people who have vision for Nigeria, people who are bold enough to take the right decision and not going to offer us on the altar of politics and compromise us just because they want something or the other and take us back to square one again and we are suffering all over the place.”

Speaking further, the popular clergyman said the National leader of the APC has done well producing many leaders.

Pastor Ighodalo stated that Tinubu should instead be thinking of how to unite Nigerians to select a person who will be able to take the country forward .

He said: “I am looking for that righteous person who is ready to stop all these corrupt practices and not dashing people money, but using the money to educate them, build schools, hospital and laying infrastructures.

“What drives an economy is production, the ability to transform raw materials into finished goods. When you continue producing, there will be more than enough for everybody to consume.

“We want leaders that will encourage production, it means that the constitution of Nigeria must be changed and fashioned in such a way that there can be complete production of all the resources of Nigeria.”
