Ignatius Kaigama, the Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Abuja advised Nigeria’s leaders on Friday to give up their lust for power. The Cleric argued that governance requires sacrifice and warned them against selfishness and personal gain.
Kaigama said that those entrusted with positions of authority must prioritize the common good and what makes citizens happy.
“We should not focus on what we are going to acquire in this world. When it comes to politics, people fight as if it is the end of the world,” he told NAN.
The clergyman observed that when politicians win elections, “there is a struggle and when they lose, it is a problem”.
He advised political, religious and traditional heads to be fair, honest and just, adding that sacrifice is of great essence.
Kaigama added that leadership is service to humanity, urging leaders to live for Christ and aim to always do good at all times.
