Samuel Oladele, the president of Christ Apostolic Church Worldwide, has appealed to Nigerians to exercise patience with President Bola Tinubu’s government over the ongoing reforms in the country.

Mr Oladele made the plea while addressing journalists at the 2025 CAC Pastors’ Conference held on Wednesday at Ikeji-Arakeji, Osun.

He urged the citizens to persevere for a while and support Tinubu’s leadership of the country, saying that “there is light at the end of the tunnel.”

While expressing hope of positive achievements for Nigerians in the present administration, Oladele assured them of a brighter future.

He observed that leadership was a challenging task, noting that the President was doing his best to alleviate the country’s current economic hardship.

The CAC president called on the government to implement policies that would alleviate hardship and enable Nigerians to enjoy the benefits of democracy.

Mr Oladele charged Christians to be a leading example of good things and live their lives as the light of the world.

“You don’t need to be in government or be a politician before you can bring the needed change, so everyone needs to be the change we desire that this country wants. If those who attend churches live accordingly and the preachers are preaching the truth and live by example, there’ll be positive change,” he stated.

The CAC president, therefore, charged the Pastors to be an example of a good leader by being trustworthy, loyal, and accountable, noting that “a leader without a good successor is a failure.”
