Senior Pastor of House on the Rock Church, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, has urged Nigerians to secure their future in 2023 by voting for the right candidates.
Adefarasin, who made the plea while preaching on Sunday at the Lekki church, Lagos state, enjoined citizens to cast their votes with the next four years in mind, rather than the two-week “rice and beans” distributed by politicians.
“As the country nears election in 2023, Nigerians should be futuristic in casting their votes.
“Vote for four years, not two weeks of rice and beans,” he told the congregation.
The clergyman while sharing similarities between food items delivered by his church to the community and that distributed by politicians during elections, said the food items would expire in a short time but once bad leaders are voted into places of authority, it would take four years or more to correct the mistake.
“These foodstuffs will not last more than two weeks, so when election time comes, vote for four years and not two weeks.”
“That is all I have to say this morning, except to wish you a merry Christmas and a sensible new year,” he added.
