Don’t vote old, retired, expired candidates - Pastor Enenche tells Nigerians

As the general election draws near, Senior Pastor of the Dunamis International Gospel Centre, DIGC, Dr Pastor Paul Enenche, has called on Nigerians not to vote for candidates who are aged, unhealthy and unfit to lead the nation.

Lisiting some of the qualities Nigerians should look out for before casting their votes, Enenche, advised the citizens to vote for a candidate with “mental clarity, sharpness, precision, vitality and accuracy of presentation.”

He said this while speaking to his congregants during the church’s January 2023 combined service, at Glory Dome, weekend, in Abuja.

According to the cleric, candidates with Jihadists intentions, bagages of affliction and persons who find it difficult to explain the source of their wealth should not be considered.

While encouraging Nigerians to get their Permanent Voters Card, Pastor Enenche said: “If you have eyes to see and ears to hear, it is very clear. The Bible says in the mouth of two or three witnesses, the truth shall be established. So, we should look physically that best bears witness to our spirit.

“Who is he that has enough youth, enough energy, enough vibrancy to lead a nation such as this, who is not old, retired and expired? Who has enough health, and vitality and is not a baggage of affliction. He has enough mental clarity, sharpness and precision, and accuracy of presentation.

“Who is he that has enough success in life outside the government? A person who can run his own life and be successful, a person who can run an institution. We have many people whose money can not be traced except to the Government, except to public office. We don’t know anything they bought or sold except that they were in government and they became rich. Who has a principle of record both in public and private life that is traceable? Who is he that has a verifiable record? Who is it that has a corruption-free record?

“Let us go to the marginalized zone in this nation. Who has said people from that zone must not rule? When others have come over and over again and misruled and destroyed the whole country and turned it into this Broad way of terrorism. Banditry, all of them conspired and it was a coalition of frustrated, retired people. And they want us to vote for them.”
