I Will Address Nigerians Weekly if Elected President or Governor, Says Sam Adeyemi

Senior Pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, Sam Adeyemi, shared his vision for leadership during an interview on enhancing leadership culture with Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Monday, September 25.

He expressed that if he were elected as president or governor, he would engage with Nigerians on a weekly basis.

The 56-year-old pastor emphasised the importance of regular communication from leaders at all levels to foster sense of responsibility for Nigeria’s future.

Adeyemi said: “If I was the governor or president of Nigeria, I would address the nation every Sunday evening or Monday. It may be five minutes, but I will sell the idea of development.”

He also emphasized the need to work together to accelerate the nation’s growth.

Adeyemi asserted: “For too long, we’ve allowed those in power to dictate our path forward. If they are unwilling to instigate change, we must initiate it ourselves, starting at the individual level.”

The Daystar senior pastor also stressed the need for communication as the next critical step.

According to him, the introduction of social media and the availability of advanced communication tools had provided the younger generation with an unprecedented opportunity to disseminate their message.

He said: “Your phone today is your radio station and your TV station.”

The leadership expert also urged authorities, including those in the military, to take the lead in advocating for a developed Nigeria.
