According to him, the church should not only be about holding services but also take a keen interest in the personal lives of the youth, actively impacting them positively to avoid them become social misfits.
”Let’s unite and train our children well to reduce the crimes because if the children don’t become good children, they will turn on us.”
On the part of the youth, he advised them to ”live according to your means”.
