“Use This Rare Opportunity To Secure Deep Changes That Will Lead To Nigeria’s Development” – Pastor Sam Adeyemi To #EndSARS Protesters

Pastor Sam Adeyemi

Pastor Sam Adeyemi, the General Overseer of Daystar Christian Centre,  has a piece of advice for #EndSARS protesters across the country.

The  man of God who noted that most generations rarely have the opportunity to lead the changes they want, told the #EndSARS protesters to use this rare opportunity to secure deep changes that will lead to Nigeria’s development.

Adeyemi urged the protesters to be peaceful and also participate in elections when the time comes.

He Tweeted;

“1.Rarely does a generation have the opportunity to lead change as the one handed the youths of Nigeria right now through #SARSMUSTEND. It cuts across the fault lines that divide Nigeria.

2.My dear young citizen, you must use this rare opportunity to secure deep changes that will lead to Nigeria’s development. The systems you confront are strategic and tactical. They may be steps ahead. You need to think long term and pace yourself.

3.Speak forcefully but peacefully. Don’t be provoked to violence. Don’t act somebody else’s script. Lightning has enough power to light a city, but it destroys because it has no structure. Shift gear into participation in the political process when the time comes soon.

4.The police officer causing you trauma is also dehumanised by the system. He is paid peanuts and forced to extort money to make his uniform, maintain operational vehicles and retire some to bosses. Fight for him and his children.

5.The generation before yours had such an opportunity 26/27 years ago when the result of a free and fair election was annulled. The protests that ensued partly birthed the democracy we enjoy today. Remind elected leaders you’re only continuing the fight.

6.Some of you will be governors, senators, president, CEOs, etc., in 10 to 20 years. Hold the vision of a developed Nigeria in your heart. Commit to value human life, be honest, promote justice, serve with excellence, and cultivate leadership skills. God will help you. #ENDSARS”
