BY AMOS TAUNA, KADUNA – The senior Pastor of Landmark International Baptist Church, Kaduna, Rev. Dr. Joe Onuche has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to initiate programmes that will convince Nigerians of his ability to move the country forward.
Rev Onuche said President Buhari has the opportunity and rare privilege to prove Nigerians wrong that he means well for the country in his second term.
Speaking while marking the fifth anniversary of the Church in Kaduna, Rev Ounche said President Buhari has no reason to complain in his second term since the APC-led administration is now on ground on how best to put the country in right footing.
According to him; “President Buhari should in his second tenure proof to Nigerians that he is truly a nationalist with his style of leadership. Nigerians expect to see a new Buhari who understands the terrain he is working and who should work with a clear vision of what he wants at the end of his tenure.
“Buhari should write his name in gold in the history of this country with how he handles the affairs of the country and how he carries every part of the country as he leads in his last laps in ruling Nigeria.
“President Buhari and his team should always respect the rule of law, no matter who is involved for democracy to thrive.
“I call on Nigerians to support the government of the day at all levels for us to succeed as a nation. We need to believe in our leaders and our leaders need to carry every section along for a better Nigeria.”
Rev Onuche expressed concern over moves by the Federal Government to establish a Radio station solely for the Fulani and advised the President to avoid being divisive, but rather foster unity in the country, adding that the president should see himself as a nationalist and a detribalised Nigerian.
The Cleric who lauded the Supreme Court judgment on Zamfara electoral logjam, also commended the nation’s judiciary for being fair while reminding the judiciary to always be seen as the last hope for the common man.
