Why Christians must participate in politics – Kumuyi

Pastor William Kumuyi

The General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor Williams Kumuyi, has bemoaned the lukewarm and indifferent attitude of Christians to active politics.

He asserted that Christians must get involved in politics in order shape their destinies and have a say in how they are governed.

The cleric made the assertion during a press briefing to herald the ministry’s annual retreat, tagged; ‘Power for present possession’ and the ‘Global Crusade with Kumuyi’ slated to commence today, at the campground in Ogun State.

According to him, Christians have no right to complain over the management of the country’s affairs if they shy away from the responsibilities of nation-building.

He said, “So, if the Christians don’t take part in politics, first off, it means that this side alone without any Christian, will determine the direction we go and will determine what the country becomes.

“And the Christians have no right to complain if they are not available to make things better,” he said.

He urged elected leaders across various helms to consider the plights of the citizens, saying they were entrusted with the responsibilities to bring out the dividend of democracy.

“We all see the condition and what is going on. Our leaders are elected leaders, whether we are thinking of the local government, state and whole nation, or the federal government.”
