Kachikwu said the present administration has led Nigeria through worrying levels of corruption and insecurity which has spiralled out of control.
Willingness to serve Nigerians
He quoted Isaiah chapter six verse eight of the Bible where God asked: "who will I send and who shall go for us'?" and the Prophet Isaiah later in Isaiah chapter six verse eight (b) volunteered himself for service.
Although the media mogul is yet to officially indicate interest in running for office in the video, he told his audience that God is looking for people in all spheres of life to serve.
He added that for such an experience, such people would be able to stand as beacons of hope especially at times like this that Nigeria has found herself.
He also called on Nigerians and the general public to 'be bold, be courageous, run this race'.
