CAN and C&S Urge FG to Address Youth Concerns from #EndBadGovernance Protest

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Eternal Sacred Order of the Cherubim and Seraphim (ESOCS) have made a significant call to the Federal Government, urging it to address the concerns raised by the youth during the recent #EndBadGovernance protest. This rallying cry came during a press conference held in Lagos to unveil the centenary celebration plans for the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, which was founded on September 9, 1925.

The Urgency of Addressing Youth Concerns

As Nigeria faces socio-economic challenges, leaders from both CAN and ESOCS have voiced the urgent need for the government to address the root causes of the discontent among the youth. Baba Aladura David Bob-Manuel (Orimolade IX), Prelate of ESOCS, highlighted the dire situation in Nigeria, where millions live in poverty, and the youth are burdened by unemployment. He noted that systemic corruption and economic hardship have eroded public trust, creating a volatile atmosphere.

Bob-Manuel emphasized the importance of addressing the concerns raised during the #EndBadGovernance protests, where youths expressed their frustrations with the government. He pointed out that peaceful protests are a vital part of any healthy democracy, as they provide a platform for citizens to voice their dissatisfaction.

A Call for Truth in Governance

Both CAN and ESOCS leaders called for a return to truth and transparency in governance. Bob-Manuel underscored the need for the government to engage in realistic dialogue with the public, urging leaders to confront societal challenges with boldness. According to him, neglecting these issues could lead to a total breakdown of law and order.

Similarly, CAN President Archbishop Daniel Okoh urged Nigerian leaders to speak truth to power, reminding them that governance must benefit all, including the poor. He emphasized the importance of using the word of God to combat deceit, oppression, and social injustice. Okoh stressed that the church must remain committed to confronting wickedness and corruption with unwavering truth, just as the founder of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase, envisioned.

The Church’s Role in Shaping Nigeria’s Future

As part of the centenary celebration, Bob-Manuel and Okoh both reiterated the church’s role in shaping a better future for Nigeria. Bob-Manuel called on Nigerians to harness the country’s vast natural and intellectual resources, noting that Nigerians are highly talented and capable of achieving greatness in every field. He emphasized that the country’s true potential could be unlocked if its leaders actively promote job creation, industrialization, and sustainable development.

One of the critical points raised during the press conference was the need for the government to focus on promoting self-sustaining agro-business and reducing the country’s dependency on imports. Bob-Manuel called for the nation to refine and export its natural resources, such as crude oil and cocoa, to create job opportunities for the teeming youth and enhance the value of the naira.

The Path Forward: A United Front for Change

The call from CAN and ESOCS reflects a larger sentiment across the country—that meaningful change is only possible through unity and collective action. Both religious leaders urged Nigerians to join forces in addressing the country’s socio-economic issues, stressing that only by working together can the country achieve its true potential.

In conclusion, Bob-Manuel and Okoh’s message to the government was clear: it is time for leaders to engage with the youth, speak the truth boldly, and create a better future for all Nigerians. The centenary celebration of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church serves as a reminder of the church’s enduring commitment to the nation’s spiritual and socio-political well-being.
