‘Nigerians deserve quality living’

SAM Adeyemi, the Pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, Lagos, says Nigerians are not getting the best life can offer and that government must stop its monopoly on electricity for investors to move into the power sector. These are some of the issues he spoke about ahead of his Church’s Excellence in Leadership Conference opening next week.
WHAT is the concept behind the excellence in leadership conference your church will host next week?
The conference is another platform for the fulfillment of Daystar Christian Mission Centre. We believe that we have the divine mandate from God, which we got before establishing the Church to raise role models, exemplary leaders in the society. We have got to now appreciate that the major challenge in Nigeria and Africa as a whole is the need for viable leaders.
The ministry has built different platforms overtime by establishing leadership schools and academy, teaching leadership and preaching it and now we aim to use the conference to project the message to the entire world. We want to make it clear that leadership should not only be a major issue of discourse but must be practicable within the society.
Secondly, we intend to promote new values and standards for leadership and also to promote new definition for leadership; that one does not become a leader because he wants to occupy a position and lord it over the people. Leadership is now defined as ability to influence people to achieve a goal. When it is defined like that, it takes away from something that a small group of people in the society controls and manipulates others. It makes it something that everybody has access to and all of us have the potentials to lead and that leadership happens at all levels of the society.
