Nigerian former Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo has tasked Christian Churches in Nigeria to always question donations made by politicians and others to support evangelism.
The former Vice President made this call during the inaugural lecture in honour of the late Senior Pastor of Fountain of Life Church, Taiwo Odukoya, on Saturday in Lagos.
Delivering the lecture, Osinbajo charged the Church to inculcate good values that Christians in public service can hold on to.
The Professor of Law asked, “How often do those who receive money from politicians and from other sources ask the source of the money?
“So, the question is not how many Christians are in government, business, or professions? The question is, what are they equipped with?
“What are the relevant principles of the gospel that they know and apply in their daily and professional or public lives?” he queried.
