Cleric Admonishes Families to be Mindful of Economic Realities

By Jeffrey Ahonmisi

Economic realities demand that families, particularly men, refrain from having children beyond their means.

President of the Men’s Ministry, Assemblies of God, Oyo District, Professor Malachy Akoroda gave the admonition in a address at the District Men’s Convention, Assemblies of God, Apata, Ibadan.

Professor Akoroda explained failure to live within economic means coupled with lack of contented lifestyle and hope in God, in part account for social crises in societies worldwide.

Professor Akoroda, however, implored men not to play the blame game but be responsible for their actions.

In an address of welcome, the Senior Minister, Assemblies of God, apata, Ibadan, Reverend Emmanuel Olubiyi, said the annual convention was organised for all men of the church’s district in Oyo State to worship with one heart in the presence of the Lord.

Highlight of the convention was the presentation of awards to distinguished members in the district.

One of the recipients of the award, Mr Wale Adelowo, who is a retired staff of Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, Ibadan, while appreciating the church for the gesture, stressed that the recognition would spur him on in doing more for God.
