I now clearly understand his boldness and fearless attitude speaking against the evils and crime in our politics and corridors of power in Nigeria, “you can’t be dining with the devil, eating from his hand, and want to condemn and take a stand against his operations and agenda.”

One major thing I'm clearly in love with in all of this is the statement of.
We need to be bold enough to speak when we need to speak.
This is a challenge for the rest of us not to sell our birthright for anything!!!
It is our birthright to speak on God's behalf as believers, and many people have sold it for a temporal enjoyment, and so when the time to speak came, they became voiceless.
More Grace, sir!!!
