BE A GOOD LEADER

BE A GOOD LEADER

‘A good man leaveth an inheritance for his children ….. Proverbs 13:22”

A

s we enter the second month of the first quarter of the year, I will like you to  make up your mind to be a good leader. Every man is a leader. It all depends on the capacity in which you are acting. A man in one way or the other will find himself playing the role of a leader, at least as a father in his house or as a leader in his community, local government, state or at the national level. It is very unfortunate that as a nation, we have not be successful at producing good leaders to a larger extent. I am sorry to say that in my own opinion, what we have had most as leaders are those who have successful helped to squander the wealth of this nation, bastardized the economy and dashed the hope of the common man.  

What was supposed to be our inheritance have been exported out of the country and kept overseas with little or no hope in sight for the “children”. This was one of the reason for the massive “brain drain syndrome we experienced in the 90s. With the present crop of leaders, we just hope and believe God for better days ahead.

As a father to your children, can you with all boldness say you are a good man? What have you being doing now to leave and inheritance that will last for at least three generations? There are many fathers who don’t care about their children’s education, home training and spiritual training (upbringing). They are too busy with business and politics that they never remember to “insure” the future if their children. It is very sad to know that there are ministries who are good at disciplining other people’s children, but with children who have grown wild. They are in church on Sundays while their children attend disco parties on Sundays in the name on staying on campus.
