A Nigerian bishop has challenged Nigerian leaders to ‘change their ways’ and be like Kenyan government.

Recall that a Kenyan official had come out publicly to apologize to Kenyans about the corruption, mismanagement of funds and other vices the government was involved in.

During a sermon delivered in his church at St. Charles Lwanga Catholic Parish in Apo, Abuja, on Sunday July 2, the Catholic Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, Most Rev Ignatius Kaigama, advised Nigerian leaders to “confess their sins against the people and return all they have corruptly looted for Nigeria to be a better place.”

He said;

 “How I wish in Nigeria our present and past political leaders will willingly come forward with such courage to tell the truth, and like Zacchaeus to honestly confess their acts of injustice and corruption committed against the ordinary Nigerians citizens.

Just imagine the impact, if beginning from our Local Government Chairmen, State Assembly members, commissioners, governors, House of Representative members, Senators, Ministers, Presidents, leaders of various security arms, the Judiciary, etc past and present, they accept to make this type of open confession and express their willingness to return whatever they have taken obviously not as part of their legitimate earnings but corruptly stolen from the people they were/are elected or appointed to serve.

 

Should this be honestly and transparently done, we will never need to borrow billions of Dollars from anywhere; hunger and poverty as currently experienced will find Nigeria a hostile place to exist, and our social infrastructure and amenities will be competing with those in the so-called “first world.” Our embassies around the world, will be overcrowded as foreigners will be clamouring and competing for visas to come to Nigeria.

Our Governors and Ministers don’t need to gallivant abroad in the name of wooing investors. Nigerians will be proud and happy to walk anywhere in the world with their heads held very high. 

 

May God give the political leaders in charge of our patrimony and indeed all Nigerians, whether high or low, the heart to always work for the common good.

Through the intercession of Our Mother Mary and St. Joseph her spouse, may our leaders imitate the servant-leadership of Christ and lead the people entrusted to their care in the way God wants.”
