The founder Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Land of Honour, Ekute, Ado-Ekiti, Pastor Richard Aluko has blamed the endemic corruption in both private and public institutions on unwholesome activities of those he described as ‘fake prophets’.
Pastor Aluko said rather than preaching salvation, the bad eggs in the realm of evangelism now worship worldly possession.
Speaking at the First Anniversary of the Church in Ado-Ekiti, on Sunday ,the man of God regretted that the major challenge confronting evangelism in Nigeria today was the infiltration of men of questionable characters .
The cleric said parts of the antics of these evil men was to instilled fear in the minds of their followers with a view to cow them.
He said: “Some of these evil men regaled us with fake prophesies .Today ,they either tell you that Nigeria will collapse or something will die .
“The truth of the matter is that nobody call these people who misbehaves and causing embarrassment to the church.
“Our focus and vision in this church is to train the people,particularly,the youths in the way of the lord.So that they can be steadfast .
“Our people are facing a lots of challenges in this country .Unfortunately, rather than rescuing them through prayers ,many of our youths have become victims of exploitations”
Aluko admonished church and religion leaders to shun unhealthy rivalries and preach the gospel in its truest form .
“Men of God should shun petty jealousy and unhealthy rivalries .If they truly believe in God, they should know that God’s manifestation will come to pass.There is no point begrudging one another.My own case is a living testimony .No one can stop God’s plan”
Pastor also admonished the newly elected political office holders to keep to their promises and not to see positions as avenue to shortchange the system.
He also urged Nigerians to support President Muhammadu Buhari in his fight against corruption and insecurity.
“Nigeria will not disintegrate. No evil shall befall this nation .We shall continue to witness peace and progress .All we need to do as citizens is to stand by our President .
“Buhari is willing to give his best but he cannot do it alone . The emergence of Buhari as President is divine and we must support him”, Aluko said.
