Former President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, has advised leaders and the privileged in Nigeria not to use their positions to oppress people.
Jonathan spoke at a special thanksgiving service to celebrate the 50th birth anniversary of the General Overseer of Rock of Ages Christian Assembly International (RACAi), Pastor Charles Osazuwa, in Benin City.
He said positions are temporary and leaders must learn not to use the positions to punish people as they would only be remembered for the impact they made on the society.
He added:”Any position I have occupied which were by divine providence, it was my belief that it should not be used to create hardship for the people,” he said.
He commended Pastor Osazuwa for his accomplishments from a very humble beginning, saying “his profile reminds me of the humble beginnings of some of our church leaders and, even Christ.
“Most great men of God came from very humble beginning and we are happy that Pastor Charles has impacted on the society at just 50”.
