Awka—THE Catholic Archbishop of Onitsha, Most
Rev. Valerian Okeke, has advised President
Muhammadu Buhari and members of his cabinet
to do their work and allow the people to judge
their performance.
Buhari
Speaking at Nawgu in Dunukofia Local
Government Area of Anambra State during a
service to mark the 10th anniversary of late Mrs.
Caroline Okaa-Onwuogu, wife of traditional ruler
of Nawgu, Most Rev Okeke said he was
uncomfortable that Buhari and his advisers were
the ones praising themselves for work they
claimed they had done, rather than allow
Nigerians to make their observation.
According to him, what Nigerians need most is
food on their table and not propaganda, adding:
“If Nigerians see food to eat, if they feel secure, if
Boko Haram insurgency is wiped out, they will be
the ones to praise the Federal Government.”
He also advised the Federal Government to focus
on restoring the values of the nation in the
coming year so that the country would rise again.
The cleric warned against the activities of self-
made prophets, whose prophecies, he added,
breed mistrust among people and make them lose
confidence in one another, warning that false
prophecy was capable of breeding suspicion,
which could make a man to act wrongly.
As part of his New Year message, Archbishop
Okeke said: “Don’t be suspicious; don’t be jealous
or envious. Do to others what you will want them
do to you and work hard for your own destiny”.
One of the children of late Mrs. Onwuogu, Rev.
Fr. Evaristus Okaa-Onwuogu, is the secretary of
the Archbishop.
