Afrobeats singer, Spyro has claimed that religious leaders are “benefiting the most” from the insecurity and economic hardship in Nigeria.
According to him, most religious leaders are not speaking up
as they ought to because of the benefits they get from the deplorable state of
the country.
The ‘Who’s Your Guy’ hitmaker, who made the claim during a
recent interview with Wozabia FM Lagos, insisted that clerics are duty-bound to
speak for the well-being of their congregations.
He also chided Nigerian clergymen for not giving their
congregations proper electoral orientations.
“Nigerian religious leaders should speak up against
insecurity. They should tell the people on how to secure themselves and include
the issue of insecurity in their sermons. They should also give their
congregants proper electoral orientations.
“Unfortunately, they are not doing that because the more the
country is spoiling, the more money they make.
“Anywhere there is a crisis in a country, the people who
benefit the most are religious leaders.
“We should make sure we hold all our leaders, including
clerics, accountable,” he stated.
