Oga Adesina,
Ti Oluwa ba'n sa mi ese, ta lo le duro? If the Lord treats us according to our transgressions, how many of us will survive?
The republicans in the Bible were asked to repent so as to enjoy the forgiveness of God.
The above were/are the moral teachings in the Bible and I expect the born again to follow the injunctions.
If our society had remained steadfast in their traditional moral teachings as Dr. Adesina had wished Soponna to deal with those who have stolen from the national treasury, perhaps there would have been no such thieves at all because they would have know the immediate consequences.
I am neither a Christian nor a Muslim but a Humanist who takes pride in Yoruba culture and customs. A very rich culture and values I admire and respect.
So, I am not a saint because such institution is not in Yoruba culture.
Happy new year.
Segun Ogungbemi.
