The founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo, has asked Nigerians to stay and rebuild the country, instead of migrating to other countries.
The cleric said this on Saturday while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria in Ota, Ogun state.
Oyedepo said human capital development is the most viable and stable stock that any country could ever invest in.
He urged the federal government to massively invest in human capital development to restore the “lost esteem” of the country.
“There is the need for more investment in education because this is the bedrock of sustainable national development for any nation,” he said.
Oyedepo appealed to the federal government to create an enabling environment for youths to thrive in order to reduce those traveling out of the country.
“Parents need to reorientate their children. Traveling out of the country is not the best as there are many youths stranded in foreign countries who could not come back home because of shame.
“We all need to stay in Nigeria to rebuild and restore the lost esteem of the country. Everyone has a part to play in the recovery of his nation,” Oyedepo said.
