As the general election approaches, the founder and General Overseer of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Pastor Paul Enenche, has urged Nigerians to reject the two major political parties in the country as they have no respect, value and regard for the people of the country.
The cleric who gave this warning during his sermon at the Dunamis International Gospel Centre in Abuja, on Sunday said the disrespect of these major political parties were made evident in their choices of Presidential and vice presidential candidates for the forthcoming election.
Eneche warned that electing another president from the same region and religion as that of the current one means the people of the country will continue to face the many challenges facing the country for another 4-8 years.
“Even the common principle of fairness, Justice and equity instructs that if the presidency has been in the group of a region and religion for as long as 8 years, the most reasonable thing is for it to shift to the southern region and Christian religion for the sake of balance and insensitivity”, he lamented.
The man of God who wondered why nobody from the Christianity religion is found worthy of being the running mate to a Muslim presidential candidate despite the massive Christian population in the country said it is an insult to the collective sensibility of the good people of the country.
The clergyman concluded that the two major political parties in the country should be rejected at the poll as they are solely driven by their personal, religious and ethnic interests and not the interest of the good people of Nigeria.
He also said that Nigerians are only left with the option of just one credible candidate and urged the people of the country not to miss the opportunity of electing the candidate into power.
“Only one credible, reasonable, sensible choice is left and you know. Vote value, but principles, character, vote capacity, vote fairness, vote Justice and equity.”
