- A pastor of the Omega Fire Ministries(OFM), has attacked the federal government
- Rev Fidelis Ayemoba has said Nigerians are yet to see the change Buhari promised
Rev Fidelis Ayemoba who is the minister-in-charge of OFM, Lagos zone, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to prove that change is actually what he came to bring to Nigeria.
Ayeomba also called on political leaders in the country to give dividends of democracy to the masses.
While speaking in an interview with Vanguard, Rev. Ayemoba lamented that the current administration was causing the majority of Nigerians to wallow in hunger and poverty.
He said in part: "There was a factor that brought the president to power and if people are not seeing it, it means, he is a failure.

"He came up with the mantra of change and obviously we thought they were going to move us from where we were to where we should be but when we discovered the contrary people are bound to react.
"Two things are involved; one is that the president’s policy of change is not causing a change the way it was expected.
"Right now because of hunger nobody believe the change is even coming. So he needs to prove beyond reasonable doubt in the next possible time that change is actually what he came to cause. How do you think he can tackle the recession?
"First of all, if you are in our shoes who genuinely deal with the masses, you understand that there is hunger in the nation, people are suffering and the Bible says where there is gross darkness, much grace is bound.
"I can say to you categorically that if we are driven out of the cycle, we will discover that solution is very close to us than the solution we less imagined. What do I mean by that?
"Nigeria has recycled leadership over time that younger generations have no place in what is happening in the system and unless we walk out of this cycle we’ll make very slow progress."
Speaking on Nigerian youths, he said:
"There are people who are firebrand; they are young men. In Nigerian system when a young man goes out of the school with so much vision, with qualification in terms of papers there will be criteria that disqualifies him: work experience and that is the secret behind the old people in the power and the young sitting at home.

"Children are always begging fathers to eat, instead of fathers retiring and the young ones providing for them. The younger generations are depending on the aged father to feed them till they die and when they die, they hand over to the old man.
"It is a continuity of the old head and whether you like it or not, medically there is a stage you get to and your thinking faculty begins to diminish. Smart thinkers are relegated, dying brain are still being paraded.
"We should stop looking down on the younger generation who are genuinely on fire and can bring necessary change to our country."
"Our leaders should put our resources to use for our future; do the right thing now that they have the opportunity to serve the nation," he concluded.
Meanwhile, the House of Representatives has called for an investigation into the act of the Department of State Service (DSS) over unlawful arrest of Apostle Suleman of OFM and detention of people and their continuous refusal to obey court order and release detained personalities.
