 Japa: Don’t flee Nigeria for greener pastures - Kumuyi


The General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has urged Nigerians, particularly the youth, not to flee the country in search of greener pastures abroad.

During a Sunday sermon in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, as part of the ongoing Global Crusade with Kumuyi (GCK), the revered cleric expressed concern over the growing trend of young Nigerians leaving the country, only to face regret later on.

He emphasised that prosperity would meet them at home, assuring that God’s goodness is not confined to any specific location.

“Whatever nation you are born in, the goodness of the Lord will reach you there,” Kumuyi affirmed.

He reflected on the experiences of many professionals, such as doctors, engineers, and lawyers, who sought opportunities abroad but soon discovered that life outside Nigeria was not as promising as they had imagined.

“Doctors go there, engineers go there, lawyers go there, professionals go there, thinking they are escaping bad things. They believe they are heading to lands of opportunities and prosperity.

“As they got there, they discovered that even to pay house rent and to feed themselves and to school their children and to have buoyant economy for themselves is difficult, they say it was better for me when I was in my country and they are looking for ways to come back,” Kumuyi explained.

He encouraged Nigerians not to overlook the potential in their own country, stating, “Goodness will come to you here. You don’t have to run away; your prosperity and progress will come right here in Nigeria.”

Kumuyi’s message comes as part of a broader call for faith and resilience, urging Nigerians to trust in God’s plan for their future, no matter the challenges they face.
