The typical Nigerian Pastor won't talk about Usain Bolt or Serena Williams. He won't talk about late Dora Akunyili or Tony Elumelu.

The typical Nigerian pastor won't talk about Steve Jobs or the young people in Silicon Valley reshaping our world.
He won't talk about young scientists spending endless hours in search of a cure to diseases that is predominantly in the Tropical African region.

The typical Nigerian pastor won't talk about Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie or Ben Okri.
In every corner of the world, there exist young men and women who defied all odds and became successful through hard work, creativity and dedication...

The typical Nigerian pastor won't talk about them neither will he ask his members to emulate the spirit of these individuals.
He would rather talk about sister Agatha who got a job she WAS NOT THE MOST QUALIFIED because she prayed and fasted in line with their church program or Brother John who became a millionaire because he used all his salary as a seed in the church.
Papa Miracle who he laid his hands on and 3 of his children got admission in the university or Mama Esther that paid her tithe and her business started growing everywhere across the nation... no business plan, just boom, everywhere!!!
This has led to a new breed of mentally lazy young people who now see God as someone who rewards for mediocrity.

To the typical Nigerian Pastor, the only way to prosper is by paying your tithe and sowing seeds in the church.
So they will never talk about those who have through hard work and dedication placed themselves on the world map.
No... the Nigerian "God" only blesses the first 30 people that rush to the altar to drop 100,000 NGN as seed.
The Nigerian "God" abhors hard work and creative thinking. He only gives to those who sow seeds and offerings... and those who shout "I am a millionaire" every morning and do nothing the rest of the day. Continue....
You want God to come down and help you use the talent He gave you and bless you with because you are going to church to shout "Daddy I receive it" or going on Facebook to click "like and share" to every testimony and prayers. You are all jokers.
Can someone tell these jokers that irrespective of your creed, faith or religion, blessings and favors follow you once you start using your talent and become useful to your society.
