I am suprised to a mad extent that people who claim to be intelligent and truth seeking go to church, hear their religious leaders say something, and without vetting it to a reasonable extent swallow it hook and all. Now the church has moved from speaking truth to power but has now aced her game by canvassing for politicians who have no business with God or his people. "by the use of simple propaganda even the most spiritual among us can be sold for the price of an orange, " and the church is already falling into this snare. Without sentiments my prayers has been that God should raise us leaders who will futher his enterprise, leaders who will put God and the masses first. So it does not matter if it is Buhari or Jonathan, after all God used Cyrus who was a full blooded gentile( Isaiah 45 verses 1-8) to futher His cause. I strongly urge Nigerians to continue in their prayers for this Jerusalem. Left to some of our religious leaders they will even go the extent of helping God to decide who gets the votes. Let's not allow ourselves to be blinded by the curtains of religion and politics. And instead of using social media to spread bad blood and create feuds, let's encourage and spread the message of peace. Come the D day, we will go out there, vote (at least we have that right), and leave the rest to God. I am a Patriot . Paul Bamikole
About This Quote

A patriot is a person who loves his or her country and wants its people to prosper. A patriot doesn't make a decision because it will increase the chances for their political party, but they do so out of a genuine love for their country. The goal of a patriot is not to be popular with everyone in the country, but to help improve the way that their country operates. With this definition in mind, what would you call someone who supports a particular political agenda? A politician? Perhaps.

Or perhaps they are a shrewd businessman trying to do good for their country. However, what would you call a person who essentially has no regard for their country? A traitor is the only appropriate term.
