Dr. Paul Enenche, Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Center, has sent a forceful warning about leadership and elections in Nigeria, urging leaders to ensure they are truly wanted by the people they serve.
He made the comments during a sermon about government, elections, and public accountability, emphasising that leadership should be founded on acceptance rather than force or manipulation.
“People say they don’t want you, yet you spend money to impose yourself on them. Is that not a shame? Somebody should lead because you are wanted. You should lead because they want you.
They say they don’t want you, and you’re trying to bribe people to compromise elections. Is that not a shame? That you are rejected, and you are imposing yourself.
They don’t want you. Clear out. Don’t contest at all. Don’t rig to lead. Don’t kill to come into power. Let them need you. It’s the people you are leading that should determine whether they want you,” he said.
He also advised against silence in the face of wrongdoing, encouraging Nigerians and pastors to speak out against injustice and poor leadership.
He believes that silence in the face of evil is akin to agreement, and he encourages citizens to speak up when required.
His remark contributes to the rising debate over leadership accountability and electoral conduct ahead of the 2027 elections.
