2023: Methodist Prelate Tips Gov Fayemi For President

The Prelate of the Methodist Church Nigeria, Dr Samuel Chukwuemeka Uche has said that Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi has the capacity to lead Nigeria.

The Prelate’s Apostolic whose visit to Ekiti was part of his tour of the Archdiocese of Ilesa, of which the Diocese of Ifaki, being superintended also blamed the rising regional tension as a product of bad leadership and poor governance.

The Church Leader who spoke in Ado Ekiti, on Monday while on a courtesy visit to the governor with some selected priests of the church declared that Fayemi’s developmental strides and efforts in sustaining peace were a clear indication that he can be “a good president of Nigeria.”

He added: “I also believe that true Federalism where the nation’s resources would be shared equitably for the benefit of all Nigerians can also help in resolving some of our challenges.

“This country needs leaders who fear God and has a genuine passion and the plight of the masses”.

Uche described Governor Fayemi as a detribalized Nigerian who believed in the unity and peaceful coexistence of the country with a track record of excellence, versatility and people-oriented visions.

In his response, Fayemi stressed the need for concerted efforts geared towards nation-building, noting that nation-building cannot be achieved by fiat.
