Lagos ADC candidate promises more jobs, entrepreneurs

By Ifeoma Ikem

Dr John Kome, African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate in the March 2 Lagos House of Assembly Ikeja Constituency 01 election has said his foray into politics is divinely ordered as a Christian to alleviate the suffering of the masses in the state, not because he wants to make money.

According to
Kome, who is also senior pastor of God’s Kingdom Christian Centre International, a school proprietor and an entrepreneur, “Like I said, I brought in network marketing concept into Nigeria 20 years ago. so I am already famous. I am not going there for fame or money.  I am going there because I have seen the suffering of Nigerians and I can no longer bear it, people come to me with so many problems and anguish.

If you stay with me in my office for the next two hours you would shed tears. some women would come here with four children complaining their children have not eaten for three days. You would see the children looking like HIV patients because of starvation and as a pastor when I give all I have in my pocket and I can no longer give again, then I ask God what is really happening here and God would say, look at your leaders.

They are enriching themselves at the expense of these people. so go there and change things and this is why I am going into politics.”

On how he hopes to create impact, he said he would turn around the lives of the masses through provision of jobs, holding entrepreneurial programmes and policies, empowerment especially of widows and orphans, victims of insurgency, provision of scholarships to poor students amongst other social programmes already detailed in his manifesto.
“I am going there to help the governor and the government of Lagos State to create programmes that would empower the youths. What the youths need right now is entrepreneurial mind-sets, which I would create for them.

The youths should graduate and not wait for white-collar jobs.”
