ABEOKUTA - The Lead Pastor of Victory Life Bible Church International, Apostle Lawrence Achudume has attributed manipulations, godfatherism, insincerity, lack of accountability, and lack of fear of God as major causes of socio-economic and political instability in Nigeria.

This was Achudume's message at the church's Carol Service tagged "Unto Us A Saviour is Born" held on Sunday in Abeokuta. 

He posited that most people occupying positions of authority are not committed to the wellness of their followers, noting that patriotism and selfless service to humanity are the bedrock of the much talked about national cohesion and economic growth.

The clergyman who lamented that many unqualified people are in charge of sensitive positions in the country, urged Nigerians to take their destinies into their hands by electing credible leaders irrespective of socio-cultural and religious leanings. 

Apostle Achudume maintained that a true Nigerian without ethnic or religious colouration is best for the much needed security, empowerment, and progress in the country. 

Saying that the future of the country has been mortgaged by some individuals, Apostle Achudume wants his colleagues on the pulpits to use their platforms to draw home the message of hope and oneness just as he explained that no nation can truly advance amid ethnic bias and intolerance.

The Carol Service which had in attendance top government functionaries, religious leaders, and members of Victory Life Bible Church International from far and near witnessed renditions of different Christmas songs and hymns just as HALLELUJAH chorus by the mass choir was sang to wrap up the colourful and well attended event.
