Apparently reacting to the state of the nation, the former President gave an indication that the situation in the country required the need for clerics to speak out.
He urged Christians to be like Christ and as well foster unity among themselves, saying that failure to do that might make them become preys to the enemies.
According to him, “As Christians, we have to be like Christ as we are transformed into the likeness of Christ or little like Christ. So, in all positions, situations and events, we should be guided. If Christ was in this position, in this situation or in this event, what would he have done?
“We have a lot to do in the situation we found ourselves in this country today. And make no mistake about it, if we don’t get together and stay together, we would be devoured and that we should not take lightly.
“For me, if Christ was in Nigeria today, he would not keep quiet. He would say it as it should be said. He would speak truth to power. He would have no fear and he would have no intimidation. Children of God, you have a responsibility to do and say what Jesus Christ would have done and said if he was in Nigeria today.”
