Cleric Advocates Unicameral Legislature For Nigeria
The leader of Godism in Nigeria, Bishop Bernard Ufuoma, has called for a constitutional amendment that will create a unicameral legislative system in Nigeria.
Ufuoma, who said this at a media briefing to mark the World Godism Day which comes up on the 7th of August 2019 (today) also called for 60 per cent annual budgetary increase for capital expenditure to bridge the nation’s infrastructural deficit.
The cleric also called on President Muhammadu Buhari to declare a state of emergency on the power sector of the country, while effort should be made to ensure local refining of the nation’s crude oil.
The man of God also condemned the calls for the restructuring of the country, adding that the problem with Nigeria is not the structure but system failure.
Ufuoma said that the country would work if leaders at the helm of affairs are sincere and stressed the need for constitutional amendment with the view to reducing legislative activities to part time.
Meanwhile, Bishop Ufuoma has called on the government to put in place modalities towards the regulation of religious activities in the country.
He also said that Godism represents the truth about the nature of God Almighty. “Godism is concerned about the nature of reality and operates in terms of absolute truths, which are unchanging,” he said.
Ufuoma said that the celebration which holds at the church headquarters, Iriebe, will feature dances, exhortations, among others.
