The Senior Pastor of Covenant Christian Centre and Convener of The Platform, Poju Oyemade has advised Nigeria’s young generation to pay attention to what is going on in the country so that they don’t get pulled into “wrong politics”
This according to him is in order for their businesses to succeed.
Channels TV reported that he made an analogy between the flood story in the Bible and Nigeria’s current economic situation, saying that regardless of how much a person has, if he does not act in accordance with reality, and look at the big picture, he gets swept away.
He urged youths to “avoid the recurrence of politics of destruction” saying that “some businesses have failed, not because the individuals were bad entrepreneurs, but rather because the politics was wrong”.
The annual event brings together great visionaries who share futuristic ideas, proffer solutions to ensure a better Nigeria, as well as to inspire the youth.
Oyemade also revealed that the program has been solely sponsored by members of Covenant Christian Center.
Shedding more light on why he has been hosting the program, he said the children of God have been made to be the salt to the earth
