While responding to questions from Journalists on Saturday at the Crusade Ground, Minna trade fair, the renowned Pastor said Nigerian youths have the rights and responsibilities to get it right through exercising their franchise.
According to him “I call on the youths who have attained the age of voting to exercise their rights by voting for credible candidates they believe would meet their needs and aspirations.
“Nigeria is our country and in democracy, we have our rights and responsibilities and God knows how to make everything good for our nation, for the young, the old and every one of us.”
On what God has said concerning the 2023 General Elections, Kumuyi said, “I can’t tell you a lie. God has not shown me anything. He has not found it fit to tell me. He does not tell everybody everything.
“God might decided to tell Moses something without telling Joshua. He might tell Joshua something and might not tell Aaron. He might tell Paul without telling Peter”.
In his words: “I cannot question God over why he has not revealed the country’s next president to him. Who are mine to tell God this is my country, why haven’t you spoken to me. When he tells me, I will come and tell you.”
The Global Crusade with the theme: God of All Possibilities” holds between September 22th to September 27th, 2022.
While responding to the lingering issue of strikes, Pastor Kumuyi said “dialogue is the way forward in resolving the crisis between the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the Federal government.
Accordingly, he explained that “rioting might or might not solve the problem between ASUU and the Federal government. There is need for both institutions to look at each other’s challenges and to come to terms.
“When two institutions and opposing bodies have a challenge, they should look at the challenges from both points of view.
“The ASUU should look at what the government is saying, what are their abilities, what can they do and government should look at the University institutions, what are they asking for, their rights and how to meet those rights, what they need is to adjust here and there to be able to come to fulfill it.”
Furthermore, he noted that “fighting each other would not solve the problem, but peace, paying the price of peace on both sides would help resolve issues”.
He, however noted that Christians were united in lifting up Christ as their Lord and saviour as well as the corner stone of their salvation, adding that Christians were not United on doctrine or denominations.
It should be recalled that Pastor Kumuyi arrived Minna on Tuesday 20th September and had paid a visit to the Niger state Governor Abubakar Sani Bello, Former Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida.
