Nigerian politicians select churches they attend ? Cardinal Onaiyekan

 Cardinal John Onaiyekan, Emeritus Archbishop of Abuja, has said greedy politicians in the country have a way of choosing the kind of churches they go to and being selective with the gospel they listen to.

He said that greedy politicians select churches they attend and pastors they listen to because they don’t want anyone to challenge their corrupt nature.

“I have noticed in Nigeria that greedy people have a way of choosing the kind of churches they go to and which preachers they listen to.” He told the Sunday edition of Inside Sources with Laolu Akande, a socio-political program on Channels Television.

“If they go to a church where they are constantly being challenged and made uncomfortable, they won’t come back next Sunday, but we need more of that,” he said.

“We cannot just be rejoicing that our churches are full, that we are building big churches. Very good, but we still want to see where is godliness in all of these. And if religion does not lead to godliness, it is even worse than none at all.”
