“This is a time for governance. Let’s give this man an opportunity to perform again for some time, and then we can make our judgments,” he said.

In his keynote address, Pastor John Dara, a preacher and politician, described Tinubu’s administration as reformist, arguing that the president’s visionary and courageous leadership required more than four years to yield sustainable results.

He called on Nigerians to unite and support Tinubu for a “landslide election victory” in 2027.

In a chat with journalists on the sidelines of thanksgiving, the celebrant expressed gratitude for God’s preservation over his 65 years, affirming his commitment to continue serving.

“I feel God is giving me energy to do more for Him, for the Kingdom, and for my generation,” he said.

He added that serving God remains his way of life. Reflecting on his 45 years in ministry.

The cleric further advised young ministers to be patient, assuring them that “where God has destined for you to get to, you will get to.”

He recounted surviving numerous life-threatening incidents, attributing his survival to divine purpose.

“God will only permit me to die if my purpose is done,” he said, referencing the biblical account of David, who served his generation before his death.
