The Bishop of Ijumu Anglican Diocese Church of Nigeria, Right Reverend Paul Ojo, has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to be focused on tackling insecurity in parts of the country.
Ojo while speaking at the first session of the fifth synod of the Diocese held at Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Ikoyi-Ijumu in Kogi State, charged the president to be focused on tackling the challenges of the country headlong.
He said; “The new president should be focused, he is not looking for money or fame. I think he just wants to serve. There will be bantering and backstabbing but he should be focused.”
The bishop urged Nigerians to pray for Tinubu to make right choice of professionals that will bring their wealth of experience in the task of giving hope to Nigerians.
He said; “If he does not have anything in mind he will not vie for the position of president. Where we are currently now in this country, we have to pray for President Bola Tinubu. You like it or not, that’s our new president and we pray that God will help him.”
According to him, the president must be careful about appointing looters in his cabinet, hence the need for Nigerians irrespective of their religion to pray for him to make right choice.
Bishop Ojo maintained that the president having served as Lagos governor has good testimonies to his credit and Nigerians expect nothing less than his best.
Speaking on the Synod theme: “The Knowledge of the Holy,” he enjoined the congregation to seek the knowledge of God as it is the only tool for success.
The synod is a platform for spiritual rejuvenation, review of state of the nation as well as growth of the church.
